When you first enter TIBCO Object Service Broker, the Library field displays the name of your default library, which is specified in your user profile and which contains the rules that you created and rules from other libraries that you edited and saved, or copied into your library. You can have rights to other libraries and subsequently other rules. You can change to another library to which you have access, by typing over the name of the library. For more information on library management, refer to the
TIBCO Object Service Broker Programming in Rules manual and the
DEFINE_LIBRARY tool in the
TIBCO Object Service Broker Shareable Tools manual.
The Test field applies only to the execute rule workbench tool. No other functionality of the workbench is affected. It determines whether a rule, when executed, runs in test mode.
The duration of the Test field indicator is transaction bound. When the
Test field is set to Y, occurrences inserted into TIBCO Object Service Broker tables through a rule are non-persistent even though the rule runs successfully. When the transaction ends or a commit is issued, all updates to TIBCO Object Service Broker tables are discarded. Most accesses to external databases are not affected by the
Test field and changes to the databases are persistent. Export (EXP) tables are updated.
The Browse field applies only to the execute rule workbench tool. No other functionality of the workbench is affected. This field overrides the workbench specification and determines if a rule, when executed, runs in browse or update mode. Other tools, like the Menu Definer, give you the option of specifying the mode in which your rule executes.
When the Browse field is set to Y, you cannot make updates to most types of tables or to external databases, through the execution of a rule. If you attempt to make an update, the rule fails. Export (EXP) tables and memory-resident tables are updated.
