<p>The original thread was for a bug in 5.0.x, fixed in 5.1, but it would be a very serious issue in 5.5. It basically means that the local memory of a beta node has been assigned to an alpha node, or that the wrong memory had been retrieved. In any case, the rete is broken: wrong facts or types would be joined in a different order or way than stated by the rules.</p>
<p>Is this something you're experiencing , or just worried that it may happen?</p>
<p>Causes could be an invalid rule in the first place (running the engine without checking for compilation errors), a bug in the construction process (unlikely, unless the rule is a very rare edge case), or a complex scenario where you add and remove rules dynamically from a knowledge base.</p>

Could you explain what you mean by rete corruption? I am familiar with rete,<br>
but hardly an expert. I am not really doing anything too complicated, I<br>
guess some runtime inserts and retracts.<br>
<br>
I tried 6.0.0.Beta2, but that has more api changes then I am prepared to<br>
handle, I'll wait until the Final version.<br>
<br>
As for 5.6.0-SNAPSHOT, I am having trouble pulling it down. I will pick that<br>
up tomorrow.<br>
<br>
In the meantime, any clarification to the rete question would be<br>
appreciated.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
