public class IlrMain
extends ilog.rules.tools.IlrBaseTool

This class invokes the ilrmain function of the ILOG Rule Language (IRL). It is provided as a convenient tool for testing a ruleset archive.

To use this class, the CLASSPATH variable must contain the jrules-engine.jar file as well as any of your application classes that are referred to in the rules.

The syntax of the command is as follows:

         java ilog.rules.tools.IlrMain [-context contextClass] -jar rulesetarchivefile arg1 ... argN
 

The options are:

• -context is used to supply a specific derived context class name. contextClass is a fully-qualified class name. By default, the class IlrContext is used. Note that subclassing of an IlrContext is deprecated since JRules 5.0.
• rulesetarchivefile is a ruleset archive jar file which contains an ilrmain function.
The
• arg1 ... argN are arguments that are transmitted to ilrmain. These arguments are concatenated into a single string and are separated by a space. For example, if the arguments are -name myname -file myfile, the ilrmain function receives the string argument "-name myname -file myfile".

The ilrmain function must have the following signature:

         XXX ilrmain(java.lang.Object arg) { ... }
 

The function may have a void or other return type. If no arguments are provided through this class, arg is null. Otherwise, the value of arg is the concatenated string.
