Abstract
Some embodiments of pattern behavior support in a rule engine have been presented. In one embodiment, a behavior builder registry is stored on a computer-readable storage device in a server. The behavior builder registry includes a set of behaviors supported by a rule engine and a set of builders associated with the behaviors. A compiler running on the server may compile a set of rules using the behavior builder registry to generate a network having a set of nodes. In response to a data object asserted propagating into a node of the network, the rule engine may first check one or more behaviors at the node before applying one or more regular constraints at the node on the data object asserted.
