[rules-users] Using Drools as a glorified Hashmap

[djb]

Hi John, Wolfgang,

Thanks for your suggestions.  Though I didn't use either of your suggestions
as described, it helped me work it out.  I added tokens describing the
prescriptions, then as they are matched (using RETE), the tokens are
retracted. Then any tokens left over are invalid.  It is probably as fast as
a HashMap.  I don't think John's solution would have worked, because no
single rule can determine whether a prescription is invalid.

Regards,
Daniel
