public class DTRule
extends UnnamedRuleComponent

A DTRule contains conflict resolution information and provides methods for accessing the DimensionNodes and DTActionNodes for the rule.

Rules are ordered by their position in the RuleSheet's DTRuleTable. DTRule does not contain references to DimensionNodes and DTActionNodes because the DTActionNodes for the ith rule in the sheet are in the ith position of the DTActionNodeTables, and the DimensionNode for the last Dimension is in the ith position of the DimensionNodeTable. Remaining DimensionNodes can be obtained by following the parent link in the dimension tree.

Rules whose dimension values overlap this rule and contain non-identical actions should appear on one of the conflict resolution lists (override, runBefore, noConflict) or they will be reported when the sheet is checked for conflicts.
