Hi!
In the manual there is a section on converting Jess to JessML. I am
going to write a rule editor and want to use JessML. As XML is not
a good readable format, I am interested in converting my JessML
results to Jess. But I don't know how to do this. Is the
functionality included in Jess?
There's no source-to-source translator as there is for Jess to
JessML, no. The JessSAXParser class can be used to read JessML code
into a Rete object, and from there you could extract, e.g., the
Defrules, and use the PrettyPrinter class to turn those into Jess code.
I also read about the article "Modeling Rule-Based Systems with
EMF". This seems to be interesting. Do you think, this would be a
good way to produce the Jess code? As I am not familar with EMF, I
shy away from this approach. Where are the main advantages over
using JessML?
I think EMF is a good thing for tool building. JessML is an
underlying technology which could easily be used by an EMF solution;
they're not really alternatives.
