by Ernest Friedman-Hill Chapter 13, Adding A Graphical Interface
About the BookImagine a different way to program in which you specify general rules instead of a linear set of instructions; the rules would then be automatically applied to your data, producing a solution to a hard problem for which you have no algorithm. That's the idea behind rule-based programming. Jess in Action is a hands-on introduction to rule-based programming using Jess, a powerful rule engine and scripting language interpreter implemented in the Java programmiing language. After a tutorial on the Jess rule language, each section of the book dedicates several chapters to developing a fully-realized application. About the ChapterChapter 13, " Adding a Graphical Interface," adds a Swing GUI to a rule-based application. The GUI is developed iteratively using the Jess scripting language. The chapter includes a discussion of using the Jess rule engine in a multithreaded environment.
