[rules-users] Rules Debugging

[Vikas Phonsa]

David and Ingomar

Thanks for the help. I want to keep track of exceptions that occur in my production system and maybe send out an email with the list of rule names that were executed and the stack trace.

So WorkingMemoryFileLogger would not work well for me. But I just implemented a AgendaEventListener and seems like it would do the job for me.

I will look into the ConsequenceExceptionHandler also.

Thanks once again.

Vikas

David already provided the answer, two more things:
* If your rule's consequences  are throwing exceptions I've also found  
it helpful to register a custom ConsequenceExceptionHandler (depending  
on your actual infrastructure)
*Another way to get that information is to use the  
WorkingMemoryFileLogger as described in here, gives you even a basic  
UI in Eclipse. Despite the name it also includes rules fired.

Caveat: Don't forget the writeToDisk (even on failure) and you may  
need to increase Eclipse' memory allocation.
