Object Anaylsis Toolkit (OAT) is a rules processing engine to apply provided rules against arbitrary objects

  • Rules contain a Target, a Severity, a boolean Expression and a List of Clauses which are applied to the targeted object.
  • Clauses perform a specified Operation on a specified Field of a Target. The Field can be any property or subproperty or field of the object specified with dot notation to separate levels.
  • The Analyzer has 4 Delegate extensibility points and the built-in operators can also be overridden with delegates.

Basic Usage

The basic usage of OAT is applying rules to targets using the Analyze function.

object target;
IEnumerable<Rule> rules;
var analyzer = new Analyzer();
var rulesWhichApply = analyzer.Analyze(rules,target);

Capturing

OAT also supports capturing the results of clauses.

object target;
IEnumerable<Rule> rules;
var analyzer = new Analyzer();
var res = analyzer.GetCaptures(rules, target);

Detailed Usage
