There's a way for defining custom operators, but it's not worth the hustle<br>unless you are using this intersecion /= {} very heavily. Stay with eval.<br>-W<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 24 August 2010 17:42, mechlife <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:gaiamech@gmail.com">gaiamech@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
I have a situation where i need to evaluate a condition where the<br>
intersection of 2 sets should atleast have one element in it. I am using<br>
drools template to create the DRL and have a set B (item1,item2, item3,<br>
item4). Now, at runtime i have a setA (item2, item5). the intersection of<br>
the sets will have item2 and such should evaluate to true. I am currently<br>
using evaluate to do a custom function but just wanted to check if there was<br>
a way to do something like this by utilizing one of the existing keywords<br>
available.<br>
<br>
Any insight will be very appreciated. thanks for your time.<br>
