[rules-users] When-becomes-true semantics

I am looking for the following semantics: Lets say I have a Boiler class with location, temperature, and pressure fields. I write a rule like When Boiler(temperature > 240) then .... I want the rule to trigger when its condition becomes true, not when it is true in all cases. I don't want it to trigger again if the facts change but the condition is still true. The actions may have adverse consequences if fired too freely. Example: Event with temperature set to 250. Rule should fire Another event for the same boiler with temperature = 270. Rule is still true, should not fire Now set its temperature to 100. Rule should not fire Set temperature to 260. It has become true again and should fire. Multiple clauses should not change things. When the entire condition becomes true, the action is activated. The facts tested in the various clauses will vary with time, but as long as the condition remains true, the action should not be triggered with each change. I tried this with one class and one event which I repeatedly modified. It fires when a new value satisfies the condition, whether or not it was true before. Interestingly, this worked for classes with a single field, but as soon as I added multiple fields I started getting the "is true" semantics. If that isn't native semantics for RETE, is there a reasonable approach I could take to layer it on, considering I want all my rules to act this way? thanks, Allan
