Hi Michael

Thanks you very much for your quick reply.
I am sorry I could not understand the proper classification of the forum.
I have already sent the request to the drools-user forum.

In fact what I wanted to mean that -
I am using the 'TeamAllocationExample.xls' - which is the default example I found searching in net.
Here LHS and RHS portions are given - I would like to know how could I execute the rule and get the result what is given under 'ACTION' column?

A code snippet could help me to go forward.

Thanks again for your time and cooperation.

Firstly, this would be best targeted at the drools-user forum, as the
dev mailing list is the preserve of drools development itself.

Secondly, can you advise why you need to access the rules rather than
the results inferred by the rules themselves when operating on facts?

Once you have your KnowledgeBase you can retireve Rule objects using the
API, however they appear to have limited use.

Can you explain your use-case more?

Subject: [rules-dev] Request help for source code of accessing excel
file using Drools 5.0


Hi

I am new in drools and in my project I would like to access rules in
excel
file using drools 5.0
Please provide me the source code for how to access the rules in excel
file.

I have done the following code

KnowledgeBuilder kBuilder =
KnowledgeBuilderFactory.newKnowledgeBuilder();
DecisionTableConfiguration dtconf =
KnowledgeBuilderFactory.newDecisionTableConfiguration();
dtconf.setInputType( DecisionTableInputType.XLS );
dtconf.setWorksheetName("Tables");
kBuilder.add(ResourceFactory.newFileResource("TeamAllocationExample.xls"
),
ResourceType.DTABLE, dtconf);
                                 
KnowledgeBuilderErrors errors = kBuilder.getErrors();
if (errors.size() > 0)
 {
   for (KnowledgeBuilderError error: errors) {
   System.out.println(error);
 }
 throw new IllegalArgumentException("Could not parse knowledge.");
}

KnowledgeBase kbase = KnowledgeBaseFactory.newKnowledgeBase();
kbase.addKnowledgePackages(kBuilder.getKnowledgePackages());
return kbase;

How could I use the POJO for accessing the rule?

Please help me.

Thanks in advance
Sanjib
