Guided Editor in BRMS / Guvnor Version 5 (Snapshot of 26 June)
by Paul Browne
Folks,
For various reasons I'm trying out the Guided Editor for Business Rules in
the Guvnor Version 5 (Snapshot of 26 June from Hudson, deployed on JBoss App
Server 4.2.2GA).
I've created the Package / Category and uploaded a simple fact model (as
works in BRMS version 4). I create a new business rule using the guided
editor and the screen shows successfully with both 'When' and 'Then'
parts.Assume the next question is due to me missing something, but wanted to
double check:
When I press the green '+' to the right of the screen I am shown the message
/ dialog layer saying '
*Add a condition to the rule... *or* Add an action to the rule.
*Problem is that there doesn't appear to be a way of adding a condition or
action. The only thing I'm seeing in the logs is
* (Contexts.java:flushAndDestroyContexts:335) could not discover
transaction status
*Am I missing something or should I come back to Guvnor later in the
development Cycle?
Thanks

Can drools continue testing even if one of the conditions fail ?
by DroolUser
Hi,
I'm using drools for testing if the few attributes of my MO are not null.
I construct the rule in the .drl file in following way :
rule "name"
when
condition1
condition2
condition3
condition4
then
consequence
end
I have observed that the drool engine verifies the conditions line by line
(in the sequence they have written). The moment condition fails, control
comes back to the calling method.
I don't want this. I want the control to execute each and every condition
whether true or false and maintain a record of passed/failed conditions.
Something like this :
rule "name"
when
condition1
log the test result --- This statement should get executed
even if condition 1 fails and control should go to condition 2
condition2
log the test result
condition3
log the test result
condition4
log the test result
then
consequence
end
Is this possible in Drools ?

look for the *.mvel templates in drools-compiler you'll see how we
generate the code. Then look at all the various java builders, like
JavaConsequenceBuilder and you'll see how we construct it. compiled code
is done in two places. We first generate an invoker class which
implements the interface, like the Consequence interface and then we
genernate the code to be executed which is called via the invoker. It
needs to be two as the needed parameters for the java consequence to
execute differer (different number of vars) so the invokers job is to
match the needed interfaces and adapt/bridge to calling to the actual
consequence/eval/predicate. We currently generate all the
consequence/eval/predicate in a single class per rule, but we have a
class per invoker.
So we now need invoker apis, like Consequence, to take an int so it can
use a switch statement to which allows multiple invocations to be
generated into the same file. An idea solution will take a configuration
on teh granularity that people want - to what we have now right up to
putting everything into a single file for the entire package.

This is done and fixed in 4.0.x and trunk - we just haven't released any

IntelliJ ipr, iml files in subversion break my svn up
by Geoffrey De Smet
Hi guys,
Someone removed the *.ipr and *.iml files from svn:ignore and committed
their *.ipr, *.iml files.
Subversion now refuses to svn up because I got local iml files that
conflict with the repository iml files.
Since IntelliJ can easily synchronize from the maven2 pom.xml files, I
don't think it's a good idea to commit those.
When not everyone uses the same version of IntelliJ this can be problematic.
Also, I explicitly exclude drools-guvnor out of my ipr file to build faster.
Can that change be reverted? I believe the old way is better.

With kind regards,

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Call for Papers
Collocated with the 11th International Business Rules Forum, the 2008
International Symposium on Rule Interchange and Applications
(RuleML-2008) is
the second symposium (after last year's highly successful RuleML-2007 -
http://2007.ruleml.org/) devoted to work on practical distributed rule
technologies and rule-based applications which need language standards for
rules operating in the context of, e.g., the Semantic Web, Intelligent
Multi-
Agent Systems, Event-Driven Architectures and Service-Oriented Computing
Applications. The RuleML symposium is a new kind of event where the Web
Rules
and Logic community joins the established, practically oriented Forum of the
Business Rules community (http://www.businessrulesforum.com) to help cross-
fertilizing between Web and Business Logic technology.
The goal of RuleML-2008 is to bring together rule system providers,
representatives of, and participants in, rule standardization efforts (e.g.,
SBVR, RuleML, RIF, PRR, CL) and open source rules communities (e.g., jBoss
Rules, CLIPS/Jess, Prova, OO jDrew, Mandarax, XSB, XQuery),
practitioners and
technical experts, developers, users, and researchers. They will be offered
an exciting venue to exchange new ideas, practical developments and
experiences on issues pertinent to the interchange and application of rules
in open distributed environments such as the Web.
The Symposium gives emphasis on practical issues such as technical
contributions and show case demonstrations of effective, practical,
deployable rule-based technologies, rule interchange formats and
applications
as well as discussions of lessons learned that have to be taken into account
when employing rule-based technologies in distributed, (partially) open,
heterogeneous environments. We also welcome groundwork that helps to
build an
effective, practical, and deployable rule standard, improve rule technology,
provide better understanding of the integration and interchange of
rules, and
make the current generation of rule engines and rule technology more usable
for advanced Web and Service Oriented Architectures.
More details in: http://2008.ruleml.org/cfp.pdf
--------------------------------------------------------------------
RuleML-2008 Challenge
The RuleML-2008 Challenge is one of the highlights of RuleML-2008. It
addresses the system demonstration for practical use of rule technologies in
distributed and/or Web-based environments. The focus of the challenge is on
rule technologies (including rule languages and engines), interoperation and
interchange. The challenge offers participants the chance to demonstrate
their commercial and open source tools, use cases, and applications. Prizes
will be awarded to the two best applications. All accepted demos will be
presented in a special Challenge Session.

drools-api/.project name mismatch
by Greg Barton
In the latest anonymous svn trunk, the drools-api/.project file has the wrong name tag. It's "<name>drools-core</name>" instead of "<name>drools-api</name>"
An "mvn eclipse:eclipse" fixes it, but just so you know.

Several unit tests failed under JDK1.6
by Jervis Liu
Hi, I have tested our
https://svn.jboss.org/repos/labs/labs/jbossrules/soa_tags/4.3.0.GA_IR1/
branch against JDK1.6. There are several tests failed, detailed can
be found on https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/SOA-714.
These failures are in three modules:
1. drools-compiler: DynamicRulesTest.testDynamicFunction
This might be related to classloader. See Mark Proctor's comments:
(4:39:06 PM) conan: jliu: the drools complier one is probably related to
the need for any classloaders to do forName instead of loadClass

(4:41:29 PM) jliu: conan: yes, i guess its sth to do with the
classloader, so maybe JBRULES-1666 has not been fixed yet. at least on
this branch.
(4:43:08 PM) jliu: conan: for ur information, this DynamicRulesTest
passed on the trunk. but there are 4 other failures under jdk1.6 in the
compiler module
(4:43:48 PM) conan: jliu:yes something changed in jdk1.6 that made the
classloaders more strict.
(4:44:43 PM) conan: jliu: in jdk1.5 I could tell it to load a clas that
didn't exist and it would correctly fail, i'd then add the class to the
classloader and it woudl pass - it's almost like jdk1.6 caches that
failure result, so that it doesn't bother to lookup the class we just added.
I have replaced all loadClass stuff with forName. but this didnt help. I
will continue my investigation next Mondy, but if there is someone who
is more familiar with this please feel free to take over this.
2. drools-repository: this seems to be related to
org.tmatesoft.svn.core.SVNException. Havnt got time to look into this yet.
3. drools-jbrms: I will look into these problems.
But again, if anyone else knows the problem, please feel free to stand
out ;-)

TypeDeclaration plugin heirarchy
by Stephen Kestle
This is a follow up to my reply to
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.java.drools.user/12319 :)
What I would like are some changes to PackageBuilder (line numbers at
r21562):
Remove/change lines 632-641 as they call
pkgRegistry.getPackage().getFactTemplate, where fact templates are
compiled into the package after 393, which is after 381->551->570->634.
Ok, so perhaps it is possible, if you define your templates in another
package...
Change TypeDeclaration.Format to a class, instead of an enum. We want
our own type. At line 632, insert something like the following:
final String format =
ObjectUtils.defaultIfNull(typeDescr.getMetaAttribute(
TypeDeclaration.ATTR_FORMAT).toLowerCase(), "pojo"); //ATTR_FORMAT="format"
TypeFactory factory = packageDesc.getTypeFactory(format); //where
packages have a typeFactory declaration of a class that implements
TypeFactory (which has a getFormat() for registration purposes)
TypeDeclaration type = factory.create(typeDescr);
lines 643-674 get moved into PojoTypeFactory.create();
Something needs to be done to TypeDeclaration to allow non-class based
implementations. After all, it makes no sense (to me) to call a method
that then just refers to a map of name-values.
However, drools uses java object types/classes heavily for rules
optimisations - and type references. Is this unavoidable? Was this the
fundamental problem with templates - that one could not be composed
inside another because the type could not be referenced (by a class)?
Also, I'm looking for a way to do partial compilation... I want to
create a description with fundamental declarations and imports for our
product to simplify the text ones, but I can't figure out how to merge -
is it just a case of declaring my core package, and then "adding" the
same one from the file?
Cheers

The debugging views don't seem to work in eclipse 3.4 (ganymede) against
5.0.0M1. Has anyone seen these work?
I've followed the instructions about breaking at a debug point, but no luck
