[rules-users] Drools Fusion: Finding an event that occuring after an event but not before it

[Wolfgang Laun]

If there is no other attribute that distinguishes between the two
Foo objects at the same time and with the same status, then the
theory says that there is just one fact/event and you just happen
to have the data duplicated. Getting rid of the duplicate may be
one way of solving your problem.

Another approach would be to create a marker fact saying that you've
dealt with a Foo at a certain time, and check for its absence, both in
the rule you've (almost) shown.
