Getting Started

The Business Rules Framework contains the Simple-Language, an extension to the Flo-Lang DSL. Its purpose is to allow for defining components of a flow directly within MPS, without needing to implement any interfaces. Components written using the framework will generate into software components in Java as they would within Flo-Lang. Currently, this includes:

  • Decisions

  • Validations

  • Business Data Functions

The Business Rules Framework is available within the com.iconsolutions.simple.devkit. To access it, open MPS to the flow you wish to use it within, and when creating a new node, the module com.iconsolutions.simple should be available.
