Circumstanding Quiz-3

In the Circumstanding Quiz-3

Which of the following scenarios is LEAST likely to use circumstancing as a mechanism to provide the specialization described? (Choose One)
Provide specialized functionality for a particular work type.
Provide specialized functionality when the “RequestedBy” property is “John Doe” and the “BudgetCode” property is “AC2348”
Provide different functionality for when a rule is called during winter months.
Provide specialized functionality when the “YearBuilt” property is 2004 or after.
Provide specialized functionality when a rule is called in the years 2013 and 2015.

The answer=1.

The answer to me looks to be that we can use Inheritance instead of circumstancing. For clarification only I am posting this question. Please provide more clarification if needed.

Chopp-


 


That's correct. Because each work type is defined with its own slot in the inheritance hierarchy, you can already specialize rules according to class type. Thus, no additional specialization mechanism is necessary.


A good guideline to keep in mid when deciding when circumstancing should be used is this:


  • If the criteria is specific to the case type, then no.

  • If the criteria is specific to the case, then yes.

For answer 1, the specialization hinges on the type of case the user creates - every case of a specific type requires this functionality. The remaining options all describe situations that vary upon the details of a specific case created from that case type:


  • The RequestedBy operator (who created the case) and the Budget Code value (how the case was allocated).

  • A rule is called during the winter months (when the case is processed).

  • The year an object was built (details about the object described by the case).

  • A rule is called in either 2013 or 2015 (when the case is processed).
