Configuring the precedence rules Reader

This task describes how to configure the UniversalDataReader component to read in the configuration file for creating precedence rules.

This procedure assumes that you have created a graph and added the UniversalDataReader component. It also assumes that you have added the precedence rule configuration file to the project's data-in (or config-in) folder.

To configure the UniversalDataReader component for the precedence rules configuration input file:

  1. In the Graph Editor, double-click the UniversalDataReader component to bring up the Reader Edit Component dialog.
  2. For the File URL property:
    1. Click inside its Value field, which displays a ... browse button.
    2. Click the browse button.
    3. Click the Workspace view tab and then double-click the input file folder (either config-in or data-in).
    4. Select the configuration input file and click OK.
  3. Optionally, you can use the Component name field to provide a customized name (such as "Read Rules Metadata") for this component.
  4. Click OK to apply your configuration changes to the UniversalDataReader component.
  5. Save the graph.

The next task is to configure the Reader's Edge.
