Hey all, I'm trying to dip some toes into the water with Drools, and have an application that would be a good start but having some understanding/lacking an appropriate example issue. The application context, let's say, is Mortgages, and already using the Mortgage rules that are stored in a running instance of Guvnor. Going back to 'toe in water', lets assume that all 'facts' are loaded on call (so nothing is pre-loaded, all data to run a rule is supplied at the time the rule is called). This is to make it easier to get started without jumping all-in just yet ;-) Using the mortgage business rule 'CreditApproval' that is already loaded into Guvnor, I can see passing the Application object, with the creditRating field/fact to a rule. However, instead of populating and returning a loanApplication object, how would I return just the decision/end result of a rule if it was only one value (the approved/not approved decision) from the java app? KnowledgeBase is loaded from the java app, but struggling with StatefulKnowledgeSession versus StatelessKnowledgeSession and how to simply get back the rule decision value (again, preferably without a specific object if it is only one value)? I'm also looking to only fire/execute one rule at a time for now until we get comfortable - any help for an app developer trying to ease their way into drools? Sorry if I not overly clear, still trying to learn the appropriate terminology :-) -Darren -- View this message in context: http://drools.46999.n3.nabble.com/app-dev-toe-in-water-help-please-tp3249...

drools-solver results question

by Andrew Waterman

Hello, I'm starting to work with the drools-solver to help on a gaming project. Basically, we have a game that works in two modes: 1) a competitive game where humans (or agents) compete with one another on a well defined game board to achieve 24 points by using three (or four) agricultural development tokens. 2. A puzzle, where all 4 players work cooperatively to create an equitable solution, where all 4 players win with at least 24 points by means of our agricultural development tokens. I am starting to work with drools-solver to address the puzzle part of our game. Basically, we are interested in having the solver do two things for us: a) find the optimal solution for our game/puzzle, based upon our requirements [this part seems quite straightforward] and b) getting the total number of solutions that satisfy our constraints. We would like, as well, to be able to inspect these other, sub-optimal, solutions, in order to explore our game and puzzle further. From my reading of the "Solver" API , it looks like we will only be able to get the optimal solution. Does anyone have any suggestions for a workaround in this case? Or is there some functionality in the solver that I am missing? I look forward to your feedback. best wishes, Andrew --------------------------------- Andrew Waterman San Cristóbal de las Casas, Chiapas, Mexico

Need help with setFocus

by new2drools

Hi All, Need some help with understanding setFocus. I have the following use case: if (condition1) { if (condition2) { } else if (condition3) { } else if (condition 4) { } } if (condition5) { if (condition2) { } else if (condition3) { } else if (condition 4) { } } I created 3 rules (rule2, rule3, rule4) for checking condition2, condition3, condition4 and created 1 agenda group (groupX) for them. I created 2 rules (rule1, rule5) for checking condition1, condition5 and created 1 agenda group(groupY) for them. rule "rule1" agenda-group "groupY" when // then drools.setFocus("groupX"); end rule "rule3" agenda-group "groupX" activation-group "someActiveGroup" when // then // end >From the java code: ksession.getAgenda().getAgendaGroup("groupY").setFocus(); Problem: The first time, drools.setFocus("groupX") is invoked, I see that it's working fine. rule2 or rule3 or rule4 get triggered. But, the SECOND time that drools.setFocus("groupX") is invoked, I don't see that any rule in agenda-group groupX is being invoked...even though one of the rule's LHS explicitly matches...thinking that the activation-group is cancelling all the activation's (after one rule in that activation group is fired), I even removed the activation-group statement. But, it didn't help...ideally, I would like to bunch rule2, rule3, rule4 in one activation group. Can you please let me know as to why the second invocation of setFocus is not working? I even tried to remove everything in LHS of rule2/3/4, to see if the second invocation would work...it doesn't... Thanks!! -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Need-help-with-setFocus-tp24177742p24177742.html Sent from the drools - user mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

conways game of life

by Mark Proctor

For anyone looking for a good and complex example on how to write rules properly, please look at Conways Game of Life in drools-examples, for extra bonus points compare it to the old version in M1. You'll see nearly all the logic is moved from java to the drl and we have removed the need for nested objects by using objects relaitionally, which also allows us to exploit cross products to drive the application.

How to read XML using XMLPackageReader-Drools-compiler.5.2.1.final?

by Praveen

Hi, I am using Drools-compiler.5.2.1.final. I am trying to convert an drl to xml and vice versa using DrlParser, DrlDumper, XMLPackageReader and XML Dumper. Drl to XML conversion works fine but XML to Drl throws NPE. I have placed the XML file under a folder called sample. NPE is thrown at line 5.. Also attached is the exception. Please suggest. TIA. Reader source = new InputStreamReader( DroolsConversionHelper.class.getResourceAsStream(xmlFileName)); PackageBuilderConfiguration conf = new PackageBuilderConfiguration(); XmlPackageReader reader = new XmlPackageReader(conf.getSemanticModules()); DrlDumper dumper = new DrlDumper(); //line 5 reader.read(source); PackageDescr descr = reader.getPackageDescr(); String test = dumper.dump(descr); System.out.println(test); java.lang.NullPointerException at org.drools.xml.ExtensibleXmlParser.resolveSchema(ExtensibleXmlParser.java:696) at org.drools.xml.ExtensibleXmlParser.resolveEntity(ExtensibleXmlParser.java:622) at com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.util.EntityResolverWrapper.resolveEntity(Unknown Source) at com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.impl.XMLEntityManager.resolveEntity(Unknown Source) at com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.impl.xs.XMLSchemaLoader.resolveDocument(Unknown Source) at com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.impl.xs.XMLSchemaValidator.findSchemaGrammar(Unknown Source) at com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.impl.xs.XMLSchemaValidator.handleStartElement(Unknown Source) Regards, Praveen. -- View this message in context: http://drools.46999.n3.nabble.com/How-to-read-XML-using-XMLPackageReader-...

Spring, KnowledgeAgent, and Guvnor

by paulB

I'm having a problem connecting my KnowledgeAgent to a package in Guvnor. I'm using Spring to instantiate the KnowledgeAgent. The agent initializes perfectly well when I point to a local change-set that in-turn points to a local rule. However, even though I have the same rule in a package in Guvnor, the KnowledgeAgent fails with the following exception when I point to the package's change-set in Guvnor: The code at KnowledgeBaseImpl.java:148 is (using 5.3.0.Final): Here is the simple rule in the Guvnor as returned by the URL for the package source URL: Here is the local change-set definition. The line that is commented is the failing resource, whereas the local file resource works fine: Guvnor is residing on a Tomcat server. I could not find anything related to this on the forum. Thank you for any hints. -Paul -- View this message in context: http://drools.46999.n3.nabble.com/Spring-KnowledgeAgent-and-Guvnor-tp3500...

Starting resource change scanner and notifier in drools-server.

by Graham Thomson

Hi, I would like to ask for help with setting up drools-server with Guvnor. I am using version 5.1.1 of both. I am trying to set up an instance of drools-server in Tomcat that periodically loads new updates of packages published in Guvnor (both drools-server and Guvnor run in the same instance of Tomcat). My change set definition is as follows: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <change-set xmlns='http://drools.org/drools-5.0/change-set' xmlns:xs='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance' xs:schemaLocation='http://drools.org/drools-5.0/change-set http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/labs/labs/jbossrules/trunk/drools-api/src/...'> <add> <resource source='http://localhost:8080/drools-guvnor/org.drools.guvnor.Guvnor/package/<one of my packages>/LATEST' type='PKG' basicAuthentication="enabled" username="<username>" password="" /> <resource source="http://localhost:8080/drools-guvnor/org.drools.guvnor.Guvnor/package/<another of my packages>/LATEST" type="PKG" basicAuthentication="enabled" username="<username>" password="" /> </add> </change-set> My knowledge-services.xml configuration is as follows (based on the unit test examples highlighted in http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.java.drools.user/20992/match=drools+s...): <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:drools="http://drools.org/schema/drools-spring" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-2.0.xsd http://drools.org/schema/drools-spring http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/labs/labs/jbossrules/trunk/drools-containe..."> <drools:resource-change-scanner id="s1" interval="5" /> <drools:execution-node id="node1" /> <drools:ksession id="ksession1" type="stateless" kbase="kbase1" node="node1"/> <drools:kbase id="kbase1" node="node1" /> <drools:kagent id="kagent1" kbase="kbase1"> <drools:resources> <drools:resource type="CHANGE_SET" source="classpath:changeset.xml" /> </drools:resources> </drools:kagent> </beans> On loading drools-server, the resources listed in the change set are loaded and available. The problem is that when a new package built and published in Guvnor, drools-server does not detect this and update itself. The effect is the same as if a KnowledgeAgent were used locally and ResourceFactory.getResourceChangeNotifierService().start(); ResourceFactory.getResourceChangeScannerService().start(); were not called. This leads me to the assumption that drools-server does not start these services by default. My question is then can/how do I configure drools-server to start these services such that it will update new changes from Guvnor automatically? Thanks a lot for any help you can offer, Cheers, Graham.

named query TasksAssignedAsPotentialOwner doesn't work with MySql db

by Frank Knoll

Hi, When I add a task (having two potential owners) by calling the method addTask followed by calling the method getTasksAssignedAsPotentialOwner of org.jbpm.task.service.TaskClient I expect to receive a list of TaskSummaries containing at least the previously added task. But I actually get an empty list! Here is my setup and possible solution: I am using the trunk version of ./jbpm-human-task/src/main/resources/META-INF/orm.xml and a MYSQL database. When calling addTask the Task table will be populated with a NULL actualOwner_id. The named query TasksAssignedAsPotentialOwner "select new org.jbpm.task.query.TaskSummary(...t.taskData.actualOwner...) from ... left join t.taskData.actualOwner ..." of orm.xml generates SQL consisting of an inner join "inner join OrganizationalEntity user7_ on task0_.actualOwner_id=user7_.id" which doesn't take the NULL actualOwner_id correctly into account. When I replace the named query TasksAssignedAsPotentialOwner with "select new org.jbpm.task.query.TaskSummary(...actualOwner...) from ...left join t.taskData.actualOwner as actualOwner ...", then the generated SQL consists of an "left outer join OrganizationalEntity user2_ on task0_.actualOwner_id=user2_.id" which takes the NULL actualOwner_id correctly into account. So I get a List of TaskSummaries containing the added task. Is this a correct fix?

Error Inserting events into drools fusion stream

by Ayush

Hi All, I'm trying to implement drools fusion into my app. The scenario of my app is as follows: - Facts will be received continuosly. - On receving fact I'm generating a new event and adding it into a new working memory entry point stream. Also I'm adding facts into session coz I'll be updating them. - I need to apply rules on continuous stream of events. - I've not used any camel + spring or pipeline. Are these mandatory to use? For 1st fact everything works fine but when I receive 2nd fact I'm getting Now when I'm trying to get entry point on receive of 2nd alarm I'm getting org.drools.RuntimeDroolsException: Unexpected exception executing action org.drools.reteoo.PropagationQueuingNode$PropagateAction@9ff411 Caused by: java.util.concurrent.RejectedExecutionException. On debug I found that the above exception is coming when I'm calling session.getWorkingMemoryEntryPoint("MyStream"); Can anyone please help me that how should I insert facts and events into working memory? I'd invested ample amount of time searching for this but I'm empty handed. Guys please help this is very urgent for me.

Date equal comparison fails - don't understand why

by Saloojee, Karim

Hi I am comparing SimpleAccount( dateAccountOpened == "5-Feb-2011") where dateAccountOpened is "Sat Feb 05 00:00:00 GMT+02:00 2011" (if you call toString()). The equal comparator fails (==) but the greater than comparator passes (>) which I don't understand. I feel I am missing something obvious here, but I have no idea what it is. rule "Test date equality" when $acc : SimpleAccount( dateAccountOpened == "5-Feb-2011") then System.out.println("Expected and found an account opened on 5-Feb-2011: " + $acc); end rule "Some dates are more equal than others" when $acc : SimpleAccount( dateAccountOpened > "5-Feb-2011") then System.out.println("Unexpected match: " + $acc.getDateAccountOpened()); end Regards, Karim To read FirstRand Bank's Disclaimer for this email click on the following address or copy into your Internet browser: https://www.fnb.co.za/disclaimer.html If you are unable to access the Disclaimer, send a blank e-mail to firstrandbankdisclaimer(a)fnb.co.za and we will send you a copy of the Disclaimer.
