Release Notes
v5.7.2 on the GitHub
New Features
- Alias Datatypes
Datatype based on standard type such as int or String with restrictions on values. Inside OpenL rules is known under another name, but exposed as standard type in web services or java. Datatype table syntax is extended and one column body is recognized as an alias datatype. Alias datatype values are validated both during compilation and execution of rules.
- Inheritance in Datatype
Datatype can inherit from another type. It’s checked that inherited types can’t be final or establish inheritance cycles.
Notice: this feature was introduced in 5.7.1.2, but was stabilized and improved in this release
- Double values comparison operations with precision
Standard comparison operators were changed to work using ulp inaccuracy comparison logic for all float point types (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_in_the_last_place). Added new operators that will compare float point values strictly.
