[rules-users] Any support for use of Timers / Calendars in Decision table (DURATION?)

[Uday Kodukula]

Hello,

I am trying to incorporate logic within my decision table where certain
rules are activated based on the Day of the week, and also time of day.

I noticed the presence of date-effective and date-expires, however that
doesn't take the timer / cron approach that I would like. I understand that
the rules can still be evaluated to true, and all that the Calendar / Timer
would do is preventing it from firing. 

Also, I couldn't find much documentation on how to use the "DURATION"
attribute. Perhaps because it is now deprecated and we should be using
Calendars / Timers? (see reference below).

That being said, how can I can i use calendars / timers from a decision
table? Is that even supported yet?

Thanks,
Uday

"duration

    default value: no default value

    type: long

    The duration dictates that the rule will fire after a specified
duration, if it is still true.

5.8.2. Timers and Calendars

Rule's now suport both interval and cron based timers, which replace the now
deprecated duration attribute."
