Date: 4 September 2012 12:33<br>Subject: how to import function in drl file on guvnor<br>To: <a href="mailto:michael.anstis@gmail.com">michael.anstis@gmail.com</a><br><br><br>Hello mantis,<br>
I am very new in drools and guvnor users. I have a problem during making rules. I want to use my predefined functions in rule execution.<br>
Suppose I have a rule "companyDivision" and i want to import it into my rule file like this:<br>
<br>
package com.exp.test<br>
<br>
import com.abc.bean.CompanyBean<br>
import function<br>
com.abc.util.Validation.companyDivision;<br>
<br>
rule "CompanyInfo"<br>
dialect "mvel"<br>
when<br>
CompanyBean( businessType == "ABC" , insuranceProgram == "XYZ" )<br>
then<br>
CompanyBean fact0 = new CompanyBean();<br>
fact0.setBusinessType( "ABC" );<br>
fact0.setInsuranceProgram( "XYZ" );<br>
companyDivision(fact0 );<br>
end<br>
<br>
<br>
How I can do this.<br>
I am doing following steps to c\generate rules::<br>
1. creating com.exp.test package<br>
2. uploading jar(model) file which included all pojo files of application<br>
3. creating "CompanyInfo" rule<br>
<br>
rule file generated by guvnor is like this:::<br>
<br>
package com.exp.test<br>
<br>
import com.abc.bean.CompanyBean<br>
<br>
<br>
rule "CompanyInfo"<br>
dialect "mvel"<br>
when<br>
CompanyBean( businessType == "ABC" , insuranceProgram == "XYZ" )<br>
then<br>
CompanyBean fact0 = new CompanyBean();<br>
fact0.setBusinessType( "ABC" );<br>
fact0.setInsuranceProgram( "XYZ" );<br>
insert(fact0 );<br>
end<br>
<br>
I have only two options there 1. insert and 2. insert logically.<br>
but on place of insert and insert logically I want to use "companyDivision" function.<br>
Please guys tell me how it is possible.<br>
Thanks<br>
