Variables in human tasks
by Renato Herebia
Hi all!
I'm developing a flow to controll what each actor must do in my system using
human tasks for that.
After verify pending tasks for an actor, I have to verify what is the
persistent object related to this flow.
The idea to resolve this situation is to attribute the persistent object id
to a flow variable before start
the process and then attribute the flow variable to task variable/parameter.
Thus, when I have the list
of pending tasks for an actor, I can get the id of persistent object and
restore this object.
In this scenario, my doubt is: how to get the task variable/parameter?
Thanks!

Matching 2 Arrays
by Ken Archer
To create a condition to check if any value within an array of a fact matches any value within an array of values in a rule, the only only approach that seems to work is: WHEN (<Collection> CONTAINS <Value> || <Collection> CONTAINS <Value> || ...)
Is there a more straightforward and elegant approach this type of matching?

Temporal constraints
by Chris Richmond
Hello,
I am trying to make a rule to delay firing until a certain amount of time
has passed without another event being received. I have set up a loop that
goes every 10 seconds in my main application that takes readings and injects
them into the ReadingStream. These are like sensor readings.
I have a thread started at initialization that is basically calling
fireUntilHalt() and I never call halt until shutdown, and that seams to be
working fine.
So basically any time an out of spec reading in my Reading object (<15) is
received, I want to wait to see if a FollowUpReading is not received in the
next 5 seconds, before I fire the results(The second rule below). The first
rule is there just to verify I am indeed detecting NumReadings with values <
15 being injected and that works fine. Now at this point in my appication
I am *never* inserting a FollowUpReading object/event, so I would expect the
2nd rule to fire all the time, however the strange thing is that it only
fires the first time I receive a reading out of spec. I see rule one fire,
then the seond time, but after that any subsequent out of spec readings
received(I know they are out of spec, because rule 1 still fires when
received) but rule 2 never fires again. It only ever fires one time! This
is very confusing. These ar the only 2 rules and the only two object types
being inserted to the stream. Know that rule 2 *can* fire because it does
once and only once. Why won't it fire beyond the first time, even though I
never insert the FollowUpReading() ?
Thanks,
Chris
declare NumReading
@role( event )
end
declare FollowUpReading
@role(event)
end
rule "Determine out of spec reading"
when
$n : NumReading($r:reading < 15) from entry-point "ReadingStream";
then
System.err.println("Fire off a follow up reading for device: " + $n);
end
rule "Missed degrading confirmation reading"
when
$n : NumReading($r:reading < 15) from entry-point "ReadingStream";
not (FollowUpReading(this after[0s, 5s] $n))

Struggling to improve my rules performance !
by Costigliola Joel (EXT)
Hello,
I would like to improve the performance of my Drools process, I have already done some enhancements like removing the use of "collect" and "eval".
I must say I'm a Drools newbie struggling to determine what causes my performance problems.
Before asking, I need to explain in few words the problem I want to solve with Drools :
My company is a bank where traders are making deals on markets, these deals must be classified in book, this is what we call "booking process".
Booking is done according to booking criteria : which trader has made the deal ? on which product ? etc ...
A booking rule defines a set of criteria and the target book where the deal will classified.
I'm using Drools to :
1. find all booking rules matching deals made by traders
2. apply the right booking rule on the deal among the ones matching the deal (i.e. that is book the deal)
I'm testing the booking process with 1000 deals and 229 booking rule.
It takes 60 seconds for Drools to book the 1000 deals, which is too slow to be put in production.
On the 60 seconds, I have 7 seconds for facts insertion and the remaining for process (after session.fireAllRules)
Do you think such numbers are normal/expected ?
Like I said I don't really know where the performance bottlenecks are ... I'm thinking of exploring the following possibilities :
* splitting my rules into very simple rules
* starting the booking process with fewer data and running it several times (instead of one booking process on 1000, run 10 booking processes on 100 deals each)
I have put my rules code below (for courageous people), if you see some obvious performance problems or if you can give some hint to explore, you would be very welcome.
Thanks in advance for your lights,
Regards,
Joël Costigliola
Ps : rules details
I have defined a flow composed of 3 steps/rules group, each group has one rule, here's the flow and the rules.
Flow :
------
"Find matching booking rules" -> "Refresh" -> "Apply booking rule group"
Rules :
------
The job of this rule is to store in DealMatchingBookingRules all the booking rule matching a specific deal (each DealMatchingBookingRules instance has a unique Deal).
rule "Find matching level 1 booking rules by deal"
salience 10
no-loop
ruleflow-group "Find level 1 matching booking rules by deal group"
when
$dealMatchingBookingRules : DealMatchingBookingRules($dealModel : deal, $dealProductRelatedIndexes : dealProductRelatedIndexes)
$bookingRule : BTExecutionBookingRuleModel (
priority == 1
// when a criterion is not set, it is considered as satisfied.
&& (traderCriterion == null || $dealModel.trader == traderCriterion)
&& (portfolioCriterion == null || $dealModel.portfolio == portfolioCriterion)
// when a product type criterion is set to unknown, it is considered as satisfied whatever deal product type is.
&& (productTypeStringCriterion == null || productTypeCriterion == ProductType.Unknown
|| $dealModel.product.productType == productTypeCriterion)
&& (listedIndexCriterion == null || $dealProductRelatedIndexes.relatedIndexes contains listedIndexCriterion)
)
then
Logger log = LoggerFactory.getLogger("Matching booking rules LOGGER");
log.info("Found a level 1 matching rule for deal : " + $dealModel + ", rule is " + $bookingRule);
$dealMatchingBookingRules.addMatchingBookingRule($bookingRule);
end
// used to tell Drools that our $dealMatchingBookingRules are ready for next step in flow
rule "Refresh facts in level 1 booking rule process"
salience 5
no-loop
ruleflow-group "Refresh facts in level 1 booking rule process group"
when
$dealMatchingBookingRules : DealMatchingBookingRules()
then
update($dealMatchingBookingRules);
end
rule "Apply level 1 booking rule"
no-loop
ruleflow-group "Apply level 1 booking rule group"
when
$dealMatchingBookingRules : DealMatchingBookingRules(hasSingleMatchingLevel1BookingRule == true)
then
BTExecutionBookingRuleModel effectiveBookingRuleModel = $dealMatchingBookingRules.getSingleMatchingLevel1BookingRule();
effectiveBookingRuleModel.applyRuleOnDeal($dealMatchingBookingRules.getDeal());
retract($dealMatchingBookingRules);
end

Events Temporal reasoning problem
by Chris Richmond
Hello,
I am trying to make a rule to delay firing until a certain amount of time
has passed without another event being received. I have set up a loop that
goes every 10 seconds in my main application that takes readings and injects
them into the ReadingStream. These are like sensor readings.

Event streams
by Chris Richmond
It is my understanding that an event will be detected as soon as it is
inserted into a stream.meaning that I don't have to explicitly call
fireRules in order to evaluate events, but them will be evaluated as soon as
I insert them into a stream, so a rule like the one below would fire as soon
as I perform datastream.insert(myDataStreamObject) without having to
explicitly fire rules? Is that behavior correct/intended?
Declare MyDataStreamObject
@role(event)
End
//rule "detect a stream data object"
When
MyDataStreamObject() from entry point "DATA"
Then
System.err.println("data object inserted");
end
Also, could I generate another event(long lived.say it lives 1 minute) so
that if the above event detector fired and some condition was met, I could
have it fire some event within the rule engine? Something like the
following:
//rule "detect a stream data object"
When
MyDataStreamObject($val: fieldValue < 20) from entry point
"DATA"
Then
//I want to raise an event purely from this rule that will live
for one minute or so, that I can use to further refine this rule, to make
sure this rule makes
//sure that the MyDataStreamObject event "NOT INCLUDED" within
the generated longer lived event lifetime. Efffectively preventing me from
firing this if one of my
//generated events is still living
end
Thanks,
Chris

Error running Drools 5.0 HelloWorldExample on WebSphere 6.1
by Blythe, Marshall
Hi,
I'm evaluating Drools 5.0 for use in a WebSphere 6.1.0.13 (Java 1.5 JRE) environment, and I've encountered an exception that I can't seem to fix. I downloaded the Drools examples and started looking at the HelloWorldExample class. First I executed it on standalone IBM JVM (not in a servlet container), and it worked just fine.
Then I created a simple web app and modified the HelloWorldExample to allow it to be called from a servlet. I copied the Drools JARs to my WEB-INF/lib folder, and I set the classloader mode to PARENT_LAST to ensure my JARs would be picked up before those on the app server. When executed in this environment the HelloWorldExample fails with this exception:
[9/25/09 16:16:23:351 EDT] 00000021 SystemErr R org.drools.runtime.rule.ConsequenceException: [Error: System.out.println( message ): Class org.mvel2.optimizers.impl.refl.ReflectiveAccessorOptimizer can not access a member of class com.ibm.ejs.ras.SystemStream with modifiers "public"]
[Near : {... Unknown ....}]
^
[Line: 1, Column: 0]
The line of code that triggers this exception is "ksession.fireAllRules()" where "ksession" is an instance of StatefulKnowledgeSession. Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

Agenda Filters usage
by Chris Richmond
Would agenda filters be a good usage in this scenario.
I have a set of objects I want to evaluate in stages, and so I only want
certain rules to fire at certain stages. So the idea would be to have the
main application do some work on those objects then updte and fire rules on
them for stage 1(Agenda Filter 1) where the rule enine would set some bits
based on the objects based on other fields.then the outside appliction would
process some more and then update the objects and fire ther rules for stage
2(Agenda Filter 2) and so on for many stages. This would make it easier to
write rules that only evaluate on the obects at certain stages and would
make it easier to write rules that don't' conflict with each other(i.e. a
rule I only want to evaluate stage 2 objects evaluating stage 1 objects).
IF this *is* a reasonable usage scenario, is there a sample in the
documentation of Firing rules on an agenda filter. I found reference to
writing a rule file that puts rules in certain agendas, but not actually
firing those rules from the client.
Thanks,
Chris
