PROCEDURAL CONSTRAINT ENGINE FOR PRODUCT CONFIGURATION

摘要

Various systems and methods for integrating procedural logic with a stateless constraint engine are disclosed. One method involves accessing a first set of values generated by a stateless constraint engine based upon a first set of inputs and then accessing a second set of values generated by the stateless constraint engine subsequent to the first set of values and based upon a second set of inputs. The second set of values is validated based upon a procedural constraint. The procedural constraint can include a precondition and a postcondition. The precondition is dependent upon at least one value from the first set of values, and the postcondition is dependent upon at least one value from the second set of values.
