Rule Set Documentation: An Important Step to Convenient |Rule Set Development

Documenting code is good practice when developing rule sets. It is crucial for the reusability and the maintenance of code, and supports software development processes as well as the cooperation of multiple developers on the same project.

To achieve this, the Definiens Developer XD graphical editor has a tool to efficiently document rule sets, by adding comments to single algorithms or to entire sequences. The code can subsequently be displayed with or without documentation.

Additionally, the Rule Set Documentation window allows viewing and storage of a rule set as a standard text file. All rule set items, including classes, customized features, comments and processes, can be exported for external review.
