Creating Ruleset Extension Points

The ruleset extension point associates an extension point to a ruleset, and defines the placement of the ruleset.

To create a ruleset extension point:

  1. From the Studio menu, select New, then select Inventory, then select Administration, and then do one of the following:

    • Select Ruleset Extension Point to associate a ruleset with a specification-based extension point.

    • Select Ruleset Extension Point-Global to associate a ruleset with a global extension point.

    Depending on your selection, the Ruleset Extension Point Wizard or Ruleset Extension Point-Global Wizard appears.

  2. From the Project drop-down list, select the project where the entity is to reside.

  3. In the Name field, enter the name of the ruleset extension point.

  4. (Optional) Select a location for the new ruleset extension point.

    By default, Design Studio saves the entity to your default workspace location. You can enter a folder name in the Folder field or select a location different from the system-provided default. To select a different location:

    1. Click the Folder field Browse button.

    2. Navigate to the directory in which to save the entity.

    3. Click OK.

  5. Click Finish.
