Remarks

An EventRule element can contain either an Action element or a ConditionAction element, not both.

Example

The following example shows an EventRule element that uses an Action. The rule creates event-driven notifications, and also loads notification data into the StockSubscriptionChron table. It is executed whenever an event batch containing events of the StockEvents class is processed. This rule is permitted one minute to complete successfully.

<EventRule>
    <RuleName>StockSubscriptionEventRule</RuleName>
    <Action>
    -- Generate notifications from event and chronicle data
    INSERT INTO StockNotifications 
    ( SubscriberId, DeviceName, SubscriberLocale,
      StockSymbol, StockPrice )
    SELECT S.SubscriberId, S.DeviceName, 
        S.SubscriberLocale, E.StockSymbol, E.StockPrice
    FROM StockSubscriptions S JOIN StockEvents E
    ON S.StockSymbol = E.StockSymbol
    JOIN StockEventChron C
    ON S.StockSymbol = C.StockSymbol
    WHERE S.StockTriggerPrice &lt;= E.StockPrice
    AND S.StockTriggerPrice &gt; C.StockHighPrice
    -- Update subscription chronicle
    INSERT StockSubscriptionChron
      (SubscriberId, StockSymbol, StockPrice)
    SELECT S.SubscriberId, S.StockSymbol, E.StockPrice
    FROM StockSubscriptions S JOIN StockEvents E
    ON S.StockSymbol = E.StockSymbol
    </Action>
    <ActionTimeout>P0DT00H01M00S</ActionTimeout>
    <EventClassName>StockEvents</EventClassName>
</EventRule>
