Sliding Windows - Error
by Paul R.
Hi,
I'm using an accumulate on a sliding window to count the number of events,
which occur in a 30 second window;
the events are inserted every 5 seconds - so with a 30 second window, I
would expect 6 events to occur.
The rule below never fires, though from the log output, it looks as though
the condition has matched successfully?
declare Foo
@role ( event )
@expires ( 60s )
@timestamp ( date )
end
rule "Count Foo"
when
c : Number(intValue > 5) from accumulate
$f : Foo()
over window:time ( 30s )
from entry-point ChannelDataStream,
count($f))
then
System.out.println("Count [30s] = " + c);
end
OBJECT ASSERTED value:com.test.DroolsTest$Foo@c52200 factId: 1
OBJECT ASSERTED value:com.test.DroolsTest$Foo@128edf2 factId: 3
OBJECT ASSERTED value:com.test.DroolsTest$Foo@1dddba factId: 4
OBJECT ASSERTED value:com.test.DroolsTest$Foo@c7e8a7 factId: 5
OBJECT ASSERTED value:com.test.DroolsTest$Foo@7b4703 factId: 6
ACTIVATION CREATED rule:Count Foo activationId:Count Foo [2, 0]
declarations: c=6(2)
OBJECT ASSERTED value:com.test.DroolsTest$Foo@1732ed2 factId: 7
ACTIVATION CANCELLED rule:Count Foo activationId:Count Foo [2, 0]
declarations: c=6(2)
ACTIVATION CREATED rule:Count Foo activationId:Count Foo [2, 0]
declarations: c=6(2)
OBJECT ASSERTED value:com.test.DroolsTest$Foo@be76c7 factId: 8
ACTIVATION CANCELLED rule:Count Foo activationId:Count Foo [2, 0]
declarations: c=6(2)
ACTIVATION CREATED rule:Count Foo activationId:Count Foo [2, 0]
declarations: c=6(2)
Can anybody explain why this is happening? I've attached a test case, which
demonstrates the problem.
Thanks in advance.

User and/or Code problem with insert/retract and salience
by Jared Davis
We have 5 rules that are firing out of salience order for a particular set
of 4 objects. The rules have a branch on the RHS which sometimes retracts
the A object. There are reasons why the branch is not in the LHS not shown
in this sample.
The 5 rules are like the following. The salience values
are 70, 65, 60, 55, 50
rule "a1"
salience 70
agenda-group "b"
when
a: A(name customevaluator "X")
B(name = "B")
then
// sometimes retract
end
There is one B object.
Another rule fires (at salience 0) and inserts 4 A objects.
1) A1 runs rule at salience 70 and is retracted
2) A2 runs rule at salience 70 and is not retracted
3) A3 runs rule at salience 70 and is retracted
4) A4 runs rule at salience 70 and is not retracted
5) A4 runs rule at salience 65 and is retracted
6) A2 runs rule at salience 50 and is retracted
I would have expected step 6 to have A2 run at salience 65 but instead it
went from 70 to 50 skipping 60 and 65. Is my understanding of the rule
rhs firing order wrong?
I'm using a 5.1 snapshot from Dec 23 2009.
I searched the JIRA and did not see anything related.

The "true modify" algorithm - less memory usage, more performance
by Edson Tirelli
Hey all
First of all, I am sorry if I haven't answered many of the e-mails lately
in the list (although I am glad that more and more users are stepping up and
helping others). The reason was we were really busy developing a major
improvement to the Drools algorithm during the last few months and that will
be available in Drools 5.1. For those that haven't seen it yet, we call it
"True Modify" for the lack of a better name:
http://blog.athico.com/2010/03/drools-halves-memory-use-with-new-true.html
The gains are totally dependent on use cases, but if your application
makes heavy use of update/modify on facts, then you will definitively see
major improvements on memory usage and a nice improvements on performance.
In that particular example we reported in the blog (Drools Planner
Examination Benchmark App) we got ~35% perf improvement and a huge memory
usage improvement: while the original algorithm reached the threshold for
"Full GC" 5 times, the new algorithm never reached the threshold (running
with -Xms256M -Xmx256M).
The reason for this e-mail is that we have a limited set of test
applications we can run here and I am looking for users that could give the
new algorithm a try to make sure we got everything covered before we release
5.1 final. From a users perspective, it should be 100% backward compatible,
so what I am looking for is for people that can run a benchmark (perf and
memory usage) of your use case using 5.0.1, then using the snapshot from
trunk, make sure the application ran successfully and provide feedback on
the perf/memory usage differences.
Ping me if you are able to run such a benchmark.
Thanks,
Edson

Guvnor 5.0 DSL Validation bug (Internet Explorer only)
by Paul R.
Guided Rule validation fails in Guvnor (Internet Explorer only), when Guided
rule contains DSL components.
It looks as though the LHS of the DSL isn't being substituted with the RHS
when validating.
I can't find a JIRA for this, does anybody know whether it's fixed in 5.1
M1?
Thanks and Regards,

http://community.jboss.org/wiki/DroolsBootCampSanDiegoApril2010
Due to unexpected levels of attendance we've moved the event from the
provided location to a larger one. This provided the opportunity to
locate the event at a hotel, so people can stay in the same building as
the meeting. We are now located at the Hacienda Hotel
<http://haciendahotel-oldtown.com> in Old Town, near plenty of
restaurants and a trolley bus to Down Town which is 10 minutes away. So
if you have booked another hotel I would recommend you cancel it and
relocate to the Hacienda.
A special hotel rate of $110 per night is available under the booking
reference "Drools", but hurry as space is limited and we have not done
any block reservations. The event itself is free of charge. Breakfast
will be provided each morning, as part of the conference, and coffee
will be available throughout the day. If anyone would like to sponsor
lunch, let me know :) mproctor at codehaus d0t org.

CHR 2010: Final call for papers
by Leslie DE KONINCK
=========================================================================
Final Call for Papers
Seventh International Workshop on Constraint Handling Rules
CHR 2010
http://www.cs.kuleuven.be/~dtai/CHR/CHR2010/
Edinburgh (Scotland), July 20, 2010
(co-located with ICLP 2010, part of FLoC 2010)
=========================================================================
News
* Abstract submission no longer required before paper submission;
paper submission deadline = April 5th
* Invited speaker: We are privileged to announce a distinguished invited
speaker this year: Mark Proctor, lead of the thriving, innovating
JBoss Drools project (http://www.jboss.org/drools/). He will introduce
the Drools Business Logic integration Platform, a fully featured
business rule engine and management system that seamlessly integrates
powerful Complex Event Processing and workflow capabilities.
Introduction
The CHR 2010 Workshop will be held July 20, 2010 in Edinburgh (Scotland)
at the occasion of the 26th International Conference on Logic
Programming (ICLP 2010), the premier international venue for presenting
research in logic programming. This year, ICLP is held as part of the
Fifth Federated Logic Conference (FLoC 2010). More information on the
venue and co-located conferences can be found on the FLOC website
(http://www.floc-conference.org/).
The Constraint Handling Rules (CHR) language has become a major declara-
tive specification formalism and implementation language for constraint
reasoning algorithms and applications. Algorithms specified using infe-
rence rules, rewrite rules, sequents, proof rules, or logical axioms can
often be directly written in CHR. Its clean semantics facilitates pro-
gram design, analysis, and transformation. For more information, please
visit the CHR website (http://www.cs.kuleuven.be/~dtai/projects/CHR/).
The aim of the CHR workshop series is to stimulate and promote interna-
tional research and collaboration on topics related to the CHR language.
The workshop is a lively, friendly forum for presenting and discussing
new results, interesting applications, and work in progress.
Previous Workshops on Constraint Handling Rules were organized in 2004
in Ulm (Germany), in 2005 in Sitges (Spain) at ICLP, in 2006 in Venice
(Italy) at ICALP, in 2007 in Porto (Portgual) at ICLP, in 2008 in Hagen-
berg (Austria) at RTA, and in 2009 in Pasadena (California, US) at ICLP.
Topics of Interest
The workshop calls for contributions on all aspects of CHR,
including topics such as:
- (Operational) semantics
- Program analysis (confluence, termination, ...)
- Comparisons with related approaches
- Expressivity and complexity
- Language extensions (negation, modules, ...)
- Constraint solvers
- Implementation and optimization
- Concurrency & parallelism
- Program transformation and generation
- Programming environments (debugging, confluence checking, ...)
- Programming pearls
Application papers that describe experience with (industrial)
applications, are especially welcome.
Important dates
- Paper submission deadline: April 5, 2010
- Notification of acceptance: May 1, 2010
- Final version due: May 17, 2010
- Workshop date: July 20, 2010
Submission Information
The four broad categories for submissions are:
1. technical papers for describing technically sound, innovative
ideas that can advance the state of the art of CHR
2. application papers, where the emphasis will be on the use of CHR
in the application, on the impact on the application domain, and
the lessons learned from this application
3. system and tool papers, empasising the novelty, practicality,
usability and general availability of the systems and tools
described
4. short papers, for ongoing work not yet ready for full publication

Query about the state of tuples in AgendaItem.
by Rajnikant Gupta
Hi Group,
I have a doubt regarding tuples. I created a rule using complex types
objects. I am comparing two complex type objecs which have parent-child
relationship eg. "ParentType.equals(ChildType)". I expect this to follow
java rule which allows such comparision. Now when I run the rules with
different values for fields in ParentType and ChildType (which means the
rule should fail) to my surprise it evals to TRUE. Also upon inspection, the
tuple shows me only the ChildType instance not the ParentType.
I would appreciate any help on this.
Regards,
Rajnikant Gupta

The source of the problem is the following rule:
*rule "R50"
when
$value1 : Value(value == "knocking")
not Input(name == "Engine noises" && values contains $value1)
or
$value2 : Value(value == "ringing")
not Input(name == "Engine noises" && values contains $value2)
$solution : SolutionInput(name == "Bad ignition timing")
then
$solution.setValue(N3);
end
*
Could you please tell me how I have to formulate the rule to avoid the
NullPointerException while inserting the fact?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Best regards

HumanTask Process
by ramram
Hi All,
I was working on the Human Task Life cycle by adding the delegate to the
drools-process-task. I have once question how we can move the process from
the "Ready" state to the "Reserved" state. If someone can help it would be
great.
