[rules-users] Rules Hello Evalution

Hello, I have the following rule: rule "041" when Party(partyType != null, partyType.trim() != "", partyType not in ("MF", "SE", "BY", "ST", "LG", "CS", "CN")) then appendMessage(globalErrors, drools) end This is rule is getting fired 7 times when Party.partyType = " ". If my understaning is right, this rule should be interpreted as select all Party from working memory where partyType is not null and partyType.trim() != "" and partyType != "MF" and partyType != "SE" .... and so on. The consequence should not be evaluated in the first place as the value for partyType is " ". Am I missing something ? Any help in this regard is highly appreciated. -- View this message in context: http://drools.46999.n3.nabble.com/Rules-Hello-Evalution-tp3602504p3602504...
