[rules-users] LHS Dao Calls / Accessing Diff instances of sameclass in drl files

Fri Apr 6 12:41:15 EDT 2007


This also fails 
when

itemMaint : ItemMaintWorkVo()

oldItem : ItemVo( statusCode : itemStatusCode == "oldItem") from
itemMaint.getCurrentItem()

newItem : ItemVo( statusCode : itemStatusCode == "oldItem" ) from
itemMaint.getNewItem()

then

System.out.println("This works");

Caused by: org.drools.rule.InvalidRulePackage: unknown:15:69 Unexpected
token 'itemMaint'

unknown:16:70 Unexpected token 'itemMaint'

 
 
If i put only the first line 
when 

itemMaint : ItemMaintWorkVo()

it executes the RHS and works fine .. but if itry to call itemMaint in
from clause it fails as above .. 

Both item vo's are created and they have appropriate status codes in
them .. But i did not assert them as facts ..i was asserting maintvo
anyway .. 

thanks

  Sanjay 

  I already answered question number 1. Plz see my other e-mail.

  For question number 2, try:



rule "Item status cannot be null"

when

    itemMaint : ItemMaintWorkVo()

    oldItem : ItemVo( <constraints>) from itemMaint.getCurrentItem()

    newItem : ItemVo( <constraints> ) from itemMaint.getNewItem()


then

end 


   Let us know if above works. When the method called by "from" returns
a single non-Collection object, the dataprovider automatically wrapps
the result in a singleton list.

2007/4/6, Sanjay Singh - s0singh <Sanjay.Singh at wal-mart.com>: 

	Hello everybody,
	 
	I still have 2 of my questions pending and i would really
appreciate if somebody could get back to me and help me out.
	 
	1.Calling dao in LHS when the method calls does not return
collection and returns lets say a boolean .. Code is attached below for
a quick look.
	
	

	rule "Item should have a valid status"

	when

	ItemVo( statusCode : itemStatusCode != null)

	ItemVo( statusCode == true ) from
itemValidationDao.isValidItemStatus(statusCode)

	then

	

	

	System.out.println("Item Status Code is valid"); 

	

	end

	Caused by: org.drools.rule.InvalidRulePackage: unknown:32:28
Unexpected token 'itemValidationDao'

	isValidItemStatus ()  method returns a boolean and i need to
check if thats true than go to the RHS side ....  somehow it does not
recognize itemValidationDao in LHS side .. RHS same call works ...  Can
anybody suggest how to call database in LHS .. 

	

	2.If I have a method with the signature 
	public ValidationErrorMap validateItemOrdEffDateMaintain(ItemVo
oldItem, ItemVo newItem, ValidationErrorMap errors, UserVo user){ } 
	Is there a way that i can assert two objects of same type in my
working memory ?? Like oldItem and newItem are same ItemVo's and they
have exactly same fields .. How do i assert two same type objects so
that i can deal with them in drl differently .. I have one ItemMaintVo
which can give me oldItem and newItem and i can only assert ItemMaintVo
but again how do i refer to two same type objects .. Here is the syntax
...
	 
	rule "Item status cannot be null"

	when

	oldItemMaint : ItemMaintWorkVo(oldItem : currentItem)

	newItemMaint : ItemMaintWorkVo(newItem : newItem)

	// I need to reach to the ItemVo (from old and new item) .. how
do i do it here ?

	then

	System.out.println( "Item Status Code is "  + old or new item .
getItemStatuscode()  );

	end

	 
	This does not seem to work .. whats the way to operate on two
different instances of same class in DRL files ....

	  Sanjay,
	
	  You almost got it right. If you are using 3.1M1 or later, you
can do:
	
	item : ItemVo ( itemStatusCode == ItemVo.STATUS_ACTIVE | ==
ItemVo.STATUS_DELETE )
	
	   field connective constraints use a single "|" or "&".

		While this is working
		
		when
		        item : ItemVo(itemStatusCode ==
ItemVo.STATUS_INACTIVE) or
		ItemVo(itemStatusCode == ItemVo.STATUS_DELETE)
		
		Is this the right way of doing it ?
		
		thanks

		Thanks Rahul 
		Yes i was setting it in working memory thats why it was
working in RHS
		.....
		
		workingMemory.setGlobal("itemValidationDao",
itemValidationDao);
		and then in the DRL
		global com.walmart.itemfile.item.dao.ItemValidationDao 
		itemValidationDao;
		
		I think i am missing something very basic ..

		Did you set the global in the WorkingMemory?
		
		You can do that using the API at
		
	
http://labs.jboss.com/file-access/default/members/jbossrules/freezone/do

		cs/3.0.5/apidocs/index.html
		and yes that is for 3.0.5. I am sure there is an
		equivalent for the version that you are using.
