Rules Flow Eclipse editor
by Prafull Kumar
Hi All,
I would like to know how we can modify the Rules flow eclipse editor look and
feel and functionality. e.g. If we have a Embedded Sub-Process in the flow and
reduce the size of it, the arrows are still displayed in the main canvas. Please
see the attached snapshot for reference.
How we can fix it? also if we want to open the Embedded Sub-Process in a new
window for easy maintainability/readability of the very complex processes, how
we can achieve it?
Going forward we are also looking to create the custom editor for the nodes.
Please guide us if its possible and there is any document for this.
Note: It seems that I can not attach files in the mailing list. Let me know if
its possible to share the image.
Regards, Prafull

Drools 5.1 - exception when trying to use incremental KB updates.
by Stephen Mcgruer
Just moved to Drools 5.1, using a Guvnor package as the base for a
Knowledge Base with incremental updating enabled. Our resource is a
Guvnor PKG. We encounter the following error when a snapshot is made:

The rule in question is quite straight-forward, works on the initial
load up and worked in 5.0.1 fine. It is not the rule that was just
changed. If I remove that rule, another is just substituted in its
place in the error message.
What might be causing this? If you need more information, please ask.

Authorisation of Guvnor users on Glassfish
by Chris Selwyn
I am using Guvnor 2.1.1 on Glassfish 2.1 and mostly it seems to work
very well.
However, I am now looking to setup authentication of users to the Guvnor
server and this is where I am finding problems.
I tried writing a class with an "authenticate" method to authenticate
against a Glassfish realm using ProgrammaticLogin but (as far as I can
tell) this class is not being used by Guvnor.
Looking at the source, Guvnor appears to only use the
org.jboss.seam.security.Identity.authenticate method which uses only the
jaas-config-name value from the components.xml file.
So I then tried setting the jaas-config-name to "fileRealm" (which
exists in Glassfish's default login.conf) but now I get
"javax.security.auth.login.LoginException: No credentials." logged in my
server.log (and the user get a fail message, naturally).
Has anyone out there managed to configure Guvnor to authenticate against
a Glassfish realm or JAAS context and would be willing to help me through?

Import Functions in Guvnor
by Pankaj Khattar
Can anybody share that how to import java function in the guvnor & use them
in writing rules in guvnor.
For example i have a drl file in which i have
import function com.alu.ae.ais.smp.fm.drools.service.Function.delayAlert;
in which 'Function' is the class & 'delayAlert' a method in the class, the
rule is as
rule "Delay Alert"
no-loop true
dialect "mvel"
lock-on-active
when
then
delayAlert(<method parameter>);
end

Expert versus Expert
by Charles SOUILLARD
Hi all,
i'm a newbie on Drools and want to understand the general architecture of
the solution.
Is it true that Drools Guvnor helps managing rules definition but it is not
a rule server ? Meaning we can define, update, archive, test... rules but
not execute them in Guvnor?
My understanding is that Drools expert is the engine, let's say the rules
server) on which one rules are executed. Is there any graphical tool to
manage this engine? I mean to add/remove rules, access a dashboard... Is it
drools-server.war?
Is there any pre installed runtime environment with the engine and - if
there is one - the management console?
I tried drools-install.zip with ant install.demo but it doesn't work for
me...
Thanks a lot for your feedback, I'm waiting to test it!

KnowledgeAgent and Guvnor restart
by Gerret Hansper
Hello,
I have got an issue with the KnowledgeAgent that seems not to survive a Guvnor
restart. The scenario is as follows:
* We use Drools 5.0
* On our application server we create a KnowledgeAgent
applying a ChangeSet that points to a package binary on a separate Guvnor server
like so:
SystemEventListenerFactory.setSystemEventListener(new
SystemEventLogger());
ResourceFactory.getResourceChangeNotifierService().start();
ResourceFactory.getResourceChangeScannerService().start();
KnowledgeAgent agent =
KnowledgeAgentFactory.newKnowledgeAgent(workflowName);
agent.applyChangeSet(changeSet);
* Creating the kbase, registering globals and running sessions works fine.
* We shut down Guvnor (or the connection goes down, this was how we spotted the
problem) and restart it after a minute
* We then try to run sessions from the
same agent as above via
kagent.getKnowledgeBase().newStatefulKnowledgeSession();
which returns a ksession, but then setting a global we get
java.lang.RuntimeException: Unexpected global [log]
at
org.drools.common.AbstractWorkingMemory.setGlobal(AbstractWorkingMemory.java:5
50)
at
org.drools.impl.StatefulKnowledgeSessionImpl.setGlobal(StatefulKnowledgeSessio
nImpl.java:284)
>From the debugger I can see that indeed the ruleBase's globals map is empty. The
SystemEventLogger indicates that the KnowledgeAgent unsubscribes from its
resource when Guvnor is down and rebuilds its kbase. Also, it stops scanning the
resource and does not find it once Guvnor is up again. (See log snippet below).
Wouldn't it be better in these cases to keep the resource as is in memory and
try to rescan? I figure that as long as the resource is specified in the
changeSet it should be considered part of the kbase and not be removed if it
cannot be found.
For the time being, does anyone have a suggestion how to avoid these problems?
We could catch the RuntimeException and recreate the KnowledgeAgent, but perhaps
there is a better way?
Thanks, Gerret

Can Drools Flow Persistence Work without JTA
by Rui Tang
Hi list,
According to the documents and some test cases, I found that Drools Flow
persistence examples have to work with JTA to enable transaction management.
Is there some way to not use JTA as my transaction manager?

Speed up inserting of rules into knowledge base
by Piotr Jedrychowski
Hello.
I'm loading a big amount of rules during starting of JBoss (20000
rules). All rules (in string format) are available before JBoss startup
- they are stored into database. Rules are loaded one by one and it
takes about 90 minutes. I want to speed up this process. Is there
something like "bulk load" for inserting rules into knowledge base or
another smart way to fast loading a big amount of rules?
I'm using:
1) Drools 5.1
2) JBoss 4.2.3
My source code looks like this:
String rule = ...
Resource resource = ResourceFactory.newReaderResource(new
StringReader(rule));
KnowledgeBuilder knowledgeBuilder =
KnowledgeBuilderFactory.newKnowledgeBuilder();
knowledgeBuilder.add(resource, ResourceType.DRL);
knowledgeBase.addKnowledgePackages(knowledgeBuilder.getKnowledgePackages());
Regards,
Piotr
