[rules-users] Removing facts from statefulknowledgeSession's memory

Hi, In my drools implementation I'm inserting all my facts into working memory and for every fact received I'm also inserting events into notification stream. Now the StatefulKnowledgeSession I'm using is static and it is neither initialized nor disposed after being initialized for first time. My application will run for months without restarting and so the same session will be used without being reinitialized or disposed. Do I have to retract events explicitly or will it handled by drools internally? If not then how can I retract them say after 5 minutes? Also I'm using sliding window and I've not explicitly declared expiry time, for events, in my drl file. Should I define it or will drools remove them after the maximum sliding window time defined in rules? -- View this message in context: http://drools-java-rules-engine.46999.n3.nabble.com/Removing-facts-from-s...
