[rules-users] Drool Rule Error with "or not" condition

Mark,

In this case, the object types that are bound don't have "not"/"or" conditions surrounding them (ExecutionOrderHist_core0 and ExecutionHist_core0). So, these objects would always be there when the rule is fired. Why would it still not identify and populate the variables of the objects, and instead try to cast one object to another?

Thanks

Malay Shah

when using 'or' the bindings and the object types for those bindings must balance for each logical outcome.

I removed the binding of EtsExecutionOrderXref_core00, and it looked good. But I am getting ClassCastException when adding new facts and conditions. I now have a new fact (EtsExecutionHist_core0) and an eval statement to check if the rule has already been fired for a unique key that is determined by variables in EtsExecutionHist_core0 fact.

Exception in thread "main" org.drools.RuntimeDroolsException: !(violations.containsKey("S-50_EtsExecutionHist_core" + "_entityOID_" + EtsExecutionHist_core0_entityOID
+ "_entityVID_" + EtsExecutionHist_core0_entityVID
)) : [Error: com.ms.ieddata.etsdb.model.EtsExecutionOrderHist_core cannot be cast to com.ms.ieddata.etsdb.model.EtsExecutionHist_core]
When I don't have the eval statement, the rule works perfectly well. Also, I checked that if I flip the order of defining facts in the rule (i.e. having EtsExecutionHist_core0 fact before EtsExecutionOrderHist_core0), the rule works fine.

Below is the drool code and the error:

Am I missing something here? I think this is a perfectly valid rule, where eval statement is needed to make sure we don't fire the rule multiple times. I don't have the entire consequence section in the drool code above, but we perform multiple actions if rules are fired. I am trying to get to the bottom of this, because we generate these Drool Rule Code on the fly, and I can't determine the order in which facts (and their variables) would be defined.

Any kind of help here would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Malay Shah

Binding a variable to a fact in a branch of an 'or' (as you are doing with EtsExecutionOrderXref_core00) is not useful, since you cannot use this binding in the consequence. (The rule might just as well fire due to the 2nd term (the "or not...") being true, and then the variable would not be bound, causing NPE.

If you do need this binding to access the fact in the consequence, you should splt the rule.

Thanks Mark. I removed the binding and the rule is compiled now, but while firing the rule over set of objects, I get a Null pointer exception.
Here is the updated Drool rule:

dialect "mvel"
rule "Legacy ETSDB Rule"
when
        EtsExecutionOrderHist_core0:EtsExecutionOrderHist_core(customerOrFirm != "0")
        EtsExecutionOrderXref_core00:EtsExecutionOrderXref_core
        (
            entityOID == EtsExecutionOrderHist_core0.entityOID,
            entityRID == EtsExecutionOrderHist_core0.entityRID,
            entityVID == EtsExecutionOrderHist_core0.entityVID,
            referenceID != "2" && referenceIDType == "orderSubCapacity"
        )
        or
        not(EtsExecutionOrderXref_core
                (
                    entityOID == EtsExecutionOrderHist_core0.entityOID,
                    entityRID == EtsExecutionOrderHist_core0.entityRID,
                    entityVID == EtsExecutionOrderHist_core0.entityVID,
                    referenceIDType == "orderSubCapacity"
                )
            )
then
    System.out.println("Rule fired");
end

and here is the stack trace:

After debugging through, DroolMVELFactory class object is looking for Declaration definition for "EtsExecutionOrderXref_core00", not finding it, and hence giving a null pointer exception. I am using Drools 5.0.1. Any idea about why this would happen? Does the rule seem right now?
Thanks

You are binding the result of the 'or' to EtsExecutionOrderXref_core00 as the second part is a 'not' which returns nothing, how would it be bound to?

Hi All,

I have the following drool rule that has "or not" under Entity Block. Basically, the rule tries to check if there either exists an entity object EtsExecutionOrderXref_core00 with the given conditions, or the entity does not exist at all with some other conditions.

dialect "mvel"
rule "Legacy ETSDB Rule"
when
EtsExecutionOrderHist_core0:EtsExecutionOrderHist_core(customerOrFirm != "0")
EtsExecutionOrderXref_core00:
(
 EtsExecutionOrderXref_core
 (
  entityOID == EtsExecutionOrderHist_core0.entityOID , entityRID == EtsExecutionOrderHist_core0.entityRID , entityVID == EtsExecutionOrderHist_core0.entityVID , referenceID != "2" && referenceIDType == "orderSubCapacity"
 )
 or not(EtsExecutionOrderXref_core
 (
  entityOID == EtsExecutionOrderHist_core0.entityOID , entityRID == EtsExecutionOrderHist_core0.entityRID , entityVID == EtsExecutionOrderHist_core0.entityVID , referenceIDType == "orderSubCapacity"
 ))
)
then
end

But, while compiling the rule, I am getting the following errors:

org.drools.compiler.DroolsParserException: [ERR 101] Line 22:16 no viable alternative at input 'entityOID' in rule "Legacy ETSDB Rule" in pattern not,

org.drools.compiler.DroolsParserException: [ERR 102] Line 22:68 mismatched input ',' expecting '(' in rule "Legacy ETSDB Rule" in pattern EtsExecutionOrderHist_core0.entityOID,

I think the rule is correct, but am not able to figure out these compilation errors. Could anybody please comment on why this would happen?

Thanks
