Generic Template Creation
Generic Template Creation
I have to create a generic template for my project. I read the Blaze online documentation.Can someone pls confirm if a code/rule template can be made a generic template. Also I am not very clear with the steps for creation of generic template provided in the documentation.
As per my understanding, in a generic template we can have various providers ( class, class-properties, type-values etc). Pls confirm my understanding. It wud be great if someone can let me know more on this(eg to be referred from the online documentation).

I don't think there is such thing as "generic template". There is a "group template" and "generic provider" - maybe you mean one of these? Or perhaps it's a "function template"? Your question is too generic to understand its meaning (http://blaze.i.lithium.com/i/smilies/16x16_smiley-happy.gif)
Hi Andrei,
As per the Blaze online documentation for Creation of generic rule template, a code template is named as condition template. The value holders in it point to some providers like class-providers, property-type providers..etc. They have then created a rule template wherein one of the value holders point to the condition code template mentioned above. I just wanted to confirm if a code/rule template can be considered as a generic template. Also if you can let me know the difference between a generic rule template and a simple rule template it would be gr8.
Thanks
Generic rule template is more like a template structure which can be used to write different structures of rules for a given client. Some thing like support for adding conditions against any classes and their properties, quantified expressions, patterns and generic actions.
