[rules-users] Timer Node Period not firing repeatedly (running in active mode using fireUntilhalt())

[Boardman, Paul]

I 'm using Drools flow 5.1m1 and have created a simple Timer test flow.
It has a simple Action node after the timer that Prints out "Hello".

I have set the timer delay to 5000 and the Timer Period to 2000.  What I
expect to happen is I get Hello printed after 5 seconds, then followed
by Hello every 2 seconds until I call halt on the session. However I
just get the first Hello after 5 seconds and that's it.  

I am calling session.fireUntilHalt() in a separate thread and then
starting my process just after this thread has started. (basically
copying the code in section 3.9 Timers from the docs)


Thanks

Paul
