Hi,
I am new to Drools and do some experiments on it, and encountered on a
problem which can't solve for a last few days, so maybe someone can explain
what I am doing wrong?
I will probably explain my problem with example. Lets say we have a
collection of letters like 'a', 'b', 'c', 'a',
'd', 'e', 'c'. And I want to
report all letters that are duplicated, but only once providing a number of
duplication. In other words, for each letter which is duplicated I need to
do a report by saying 'Letter X is duplicated N times.
My idea was to create cardinality collection for letters which is a
collection of POJOs Tuple where first is letter and second is cound (first
and second are properties). I created a function for it createCardinality(
Collection letters ) which returns such cardinality info and tried something
like:
when
Something( $letters: collectionOfLetters )
Tuple( $letter: first, $count: second > 1 ) from collect( Tuple() from
createCardinality( $letters ) )
then
System.out.println( "Letter "+letter+" is duplicated
"+$count+"
times" )
But I am reported (at least it looks like this) about the problems with my
function createCardinality(). Maybe I misunderstood something about usage of
FROM?

createCardinality must return a Collection. I think the simplest way of
solving your problem is to write a simple class LetterCounter implementing
the counting and a DRL function extracting the collection of Tuples from the
LetterCounter:
public class LetterCounter extends HashMap<Character,Integer> {
public static Set<Map.Entry<Character,Integer>> counterSet(
Collection<Character> l ){
return new LetterCounter( l ).entrySet();
}
public LetterCounter( Collection<Character> chars ){
super();
for( Character c: chars ){
Integer count = get( c );
put( c, count == null ? 1 : count + 1 );
}
}
}
rule "count"
when
$t: Something( $l: collectionOfLetters )
Map.Entry( $key: key, $val: value > 1 ) from LetterCounter.counterSet(
$l )
then
System.out.println( "letter " + $key + ": " + $val );
end

Looks somewhat different to me; originally there's a fact containing a
Collection of letters, not individual Letter() facts, each with its own
character. Therefore, you don't have the fact for the initial pattern.

Fair point :)
I took "collection" to mean some letters rather than "Collection".

The approach with "pure rule" is working too. I just was not capable to think
in this "rule" way, so thanks for hint!

Hi,
[offtopic]
Thanks for quick response! It is always nice when project has an active and
friendly community. This is a sign of healthy project itself :)
[/offtopic]
My function was returning a collection. It seems that I made an error in
import of the function. I had some debug, info, etc static methods in the
class and they were imported with import function ...* and it worked, so I
expected that adding public static createCountMap(...) into the same class
will solve it too, but somehow I needed to declare it explicitly.
Also, having the same code in Drools file in function declaration is not
working when I use java 5 syntax, so I just rewrote it with java 1.4 syntax
and it works fine too. If there is such a restriction, then it for sure
missed in official documentation
http://downloads.jboss.com/drools/docs/5.1.1.34858.FINAL/drools-expert/ht....
So, that were all my problems were :).
Thanks again for response!
I also can see another approach for solving the problem in the thread, so I
will play with it too - it looks interesting for me. Thinking in the
declarative drools like style requires some brain restructuring. It is like
moving from imperative to functional programming. And speaking of functional
approach - It reminds me about Scala and question here is:
Can Scala be used as one of the dialects in the future? Are there any plans
or thinkings or wishes in the "wish-list" for it? :}

My function was returning a collection.
If it returns a Collection<Tuple> you should be able to use
when
Something( $letters: collectionOfLetters )
Tuple( $letter: first, $count: second > 1 ) from createCardinality(
$letters )
then
System.out.println( "Letter "+letter+" is duplicated
"+$count+"
times" )
end
"from collect" generates a Collection<X> from individial X's; from
<Collection-expression> inspects elements coming from a collection.
Please note that better help can be obtained by showing all of the relevant
code and the error messages.
