Hi Vishnu,
1) Of course, you can create your own templates and then create Rules
tables based on them . See the detailed description of templates at
http://openrules.com/pdf/OpenRulesUserManual.pdf, page 49. Before we
implemented the Decision Model with Rule Families,custom rule
templates provided the main mechanism for custom rules development.
See also
http://openrules.com/docs/man_templates.html for OpenRules-5.
2) Yes, "If we have [C1], then can we have zero or more C1 columns".
You just have to use explicitly a second row that defined "C1" and
other used conditions and actions. See the User Manual and
http://openrules.com/docs/man_templates.html#Partial Template
Implementation
3) Your are right. At this point, we continue to improve our default
Decision Model templates and do not want (yet!) our customers to
create their own template. We will be backward compatible, but we want
to reserve an opportunity to extend standard templates with additional
features. However, we cannot prevent you from creating your own
templates to replace the standard ones right now. At the same time, we
would be glad to add additional features upon your request.
4) As you can see from the provided RuleFamilyExecuteTempaltes.xls,
there are currently two internal variables $COLUMN_TITLE and
$TABLE_TITLE that can be used inside the templates.
Hope it is helpful.
