Abstract

Embodiments relate to managing and executing interpreted language code. An aspect includes a parser configured to parse controlled language code against both a language grammar and for building an execution model comprising parsed known concepts. Another aspect includes a pattern matching engine configured to match patterns in the controlled language code with a patterns for a new concept. Yet another aspect includes a concept engine configured to create a new concept from the matched pattern and controlled language code and for saving the new concept into an object model and into a language grammar so that current and future parsing errors will not occur when recognizing the new concept.

Claims

1. A system for managing and executing interpreted language code comprising:

a parser configured to parse controlled language code against both a language grammar and for building an execution model comprising parsed known concepts;

a pattern matching engine configured to match patterns in the controlled language code with a patterns for a new concept; and

a concept engine configured to create a new concept from the matched pattern and controlled language code and for saving the new concept into an object model and into a language grammar so that current and future parsing errors will not occur when recognizing the new concept.

2. The system of claim 1, wherein an error during parsing of the language grammar triggers a search to match the error with a new concept.

3. The system of claim 1, wherein the interpreted language code comprises rules and actions for making decisions and the system is a decision management system.

4. The system of claim 1, further comprising matching patterns in the controlled language code against patterns for types of new concepts.

5. The system of claim 1, wherein:

the pattern matching engine is configured to match patterns in the controlled language code against patterns for new properties of concepts; and

the concept engine is configured to create new properties of a concept from the matched pattern and the controlled language code and saving a property of a concept with a corresponding action into the object model; and

further comprising an execution engine configured to execute the concepts and actions in the object model.

6. The system of claim 5, wherein the pattern matching engine is configured to match patterns in the controlled language code against patterns for types of new properties.

7. A method for managing and executing interpreted language code comprising:

parsing controlled language code against a language grammar to build an execution model comprising known concepts;

matching patterns in the controlled language code against patterns for new concepts;

creating a new concept from the matched pattern and the controlled language code; and

saving the new concept into an object model and into a language grammar so that current and future parsing errors will not occur when recognizing the new concept.

8. The method of claim 7, wherein an error during parsing of the language grammar triggers a search to match the error with a new concept.

9. The method of claim 7, wherein the interpreted language code comprises rules and actions for making decisions.

10. The method of claim 8, further comprising matching patterns in the controlled language code against patterns for types of new concepts.

11. The method of claim 8, further comprising:

matching patterns in the controlled language code against patterns for new properties of concepts;

creating new properties of a concept from the matched pattern and the controlled language code; and

saving a property of a concept with a corresponding action into the object model; and

executing the concepts and actions in the object model.

12. The method of claim 11, further comprising matching patterns in the controlled language code against patterns for types of new properties.

13. A computer program product for managing and executing interpreted language code, the computer program product comprising a computer readable medium having computer-readable program code embodied therewith, which when executed by a computer processor, causes the computer processor to implement:

parsing controlled language code against a language grammar to build an execution model comprising known concepts;

matching patterns in the controlled language code against patterns for new concepts;

creating a new concept from the matched pattern and the controlled language code; and

saving the new concept into an object model and into a language grammar so that current and future parsing errors will not occur when recognizing the new concept.

14. The computer program product of claim 13, wherein an error during parsing of the language grammar triggers a search to match the error with a new concept.

15. The computer program product of claim 13, wherein the interpreted language code comprises rules and actions for making decisions.

16. The computer program product of claim 13, further comprising matching patterns in the controlled language code against patterns for types of new concepts.

17. The computer program product of claim 13, further comprising:

matching patterns in the controlled language code against patterns for new properties of concepts;

creating new properties of a concept from the matched pattern and the controlled language code; and

saving a property of a concept with a corresponding action into the object model; and

executing the concepts and actions in the object model.

18. The computer program product of claim 17, further comprising matching patterns in the controlled language code against patterns for types of new properties.
