[rules-dev] CEP/ESP support: initial commit

All, As some of you already know, I created a branch to develop the CEP/ESP support as well as the temporal extension to the engine. You can check it out from here: http://anonsvn.labs.jboss.com/labs/jbossrules/branches/temporal_rete/ Parent JIRA task is: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBRULES-1331 Right now I'm working on: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBRULES-1332 Today I committed the first few bits to it ( http://fisheye.jboss.org/changelog/~author=tirelli/JBossRules/?cs=16677). It is not much, but the parser is now capable of identifying and handling "event" declarations in the form of: import event a.b.c.MyEvent import event x.y.z.* The engine is also able to correctly identify events as we discussed in the mail thread last week. Next step I am working on is getting the engine to support a special type of fact handle: EventFactHandle. This will require a bit of refactoring to get some conf information up in the WorkingMemory or RuleBase class. From now on, the development of the features related to that will accelerate and I will try to keep as much discussions as possible here in the list. So, if you are one of those that loves open source, is interested in the CEP/ESP subject and/or temporal reasoning, and want to get involved, this is a good time for you to join the crew as we set sail. :) Happy Drooling, []s Edson -- Edson Tirelli Software Engineer - JBoss Rules Core Developer Office: +55 11 3529-6000 Mobile: +55 11 9287-5646 JBoss, a division of Red Hat @ www.jboss.com
