A rule-finding algorithm which looks for a method with a specific name on a class whose name is derived from the plugin class name.

Create a rule-finder which invokes a method on a class whenever dynamic rules for a plugin need to be loaded. See the findRules method for more info.
Params:
  • rulesClassSuffix – must be non-null.
  • methodName – may be null.

If there exists a class whose name is the plugin class name + the suffix specified to the constructor, then load that class, locate the appropriate rules-adding method on that class, and return an object encapsulating that info.

If there is no such class, then just return null.

The returned object (when non-null) will invoke the target method on the selected class whenever its addRules method is invoked. The target method is expected to have the following prototype: public static void xxxxx(Digester d, String patternPrefix);
