[rules-users] Drools in a web application

[forsakendoll]

I'm already reading your code while waiting for response here. Actually Its a
bit big project for me to start and I'm also new to Spring MVC so its really
hard for me to read this code too. I'm using annotation for controllers and
I don't see one in yours. Correct me if I'm wrong what I'm expecting is:

1. From the user interaction through the page it will send a request to the
controller.
2. From the controller a bean will be send to the .drl file which have
rules.
3. Update or send back some data to the controller ( this one is I don't
really have the idea of how can I do this )
4. Add to the model attribute the data that has been send by .drl file.

Please correct me if I'm wrong. And please guide me a bit more to this.
