Element <ruleBase>

Definition and Usage¶

The <ruleBase> element groups a set of rules specified in <rule> and <compositeRule> elements. The specification of rules in NCL 3.0 was done in a separate module, because they are useful for defining either alternative components or alternative descriptors.

Syntax¶

Element	Attributes	Content	Parent
<ruleBase>	id	(<importBase>	<compositeRule>	<rule>)+	<head>

Attributes¶
