Hello Michael,
yes, it is a Test scenario in Guvnor. In attachment is a very simple
project. Target is to check the resulting list. On the picture you can
see the problem: altough expected values are the same as target the
test is not succesful. Or am i using it not correctly?

Is it possible setting planning entity with uninitialized planning value into
solution?
if it is possible, then how? :)
plz, help me :)
When I execute my code with not null planning variables everything work
fine, but when i execute without setting planning variables I have

Problem deploying 5.3.0 drools server in Tomcat

When I deploy drools-camel-server-5.3.0.Final.war into tomcat (webapps

Fwd: Migrating repository data from Drools 5.0 to 5.3Final
by Michael Anstis
I suspect ConsumerAccountAssociationFact.hasAnyAccountClosed is a boolean.
In 5.3 we handle data-types better than 5.0, so String, Numbers, Dates are
Booleans have editors appropriate for the data-type and the resulting DRL
only escapes values with quotation marks where needed (i.e. Strings and
Dates). Boolean's in the table are now shown as Checkboxes. If the value is
"true" it is ticked, if the value is "false" the checkbox is not ticked.
I don't therefore believe there is any problem.

5.4 stability?
by Stephen Masters
Hi folks,
With 5.3.0.Final I have crashed into the brick wall of https://issues.jboss.org/browse/GUVNOR-1726 which makes templates pretty much useless.
Now Jira mentions that this should be fixed in 5.4.0 beta1, so I'm thinking that it should still be fixed in beta 2. Not having the ability to build these rule templates is a pretty big issue for me, but I don't want to give myself a whole load more headaches by switching to something too flaky. So can anybody give me some idea of how stable beta 2 is at the moment? If I were to perform the upgrade would I be likely to spend a few days fire-fighting?

Re: [rules-users] rule group activation by concurrent jbpm processes
by Alberto R. Galdo
Hi,
We've gained some insight about what is happening under the hood for this
kind of interaction between JBPM and Drools expert.
Imagine a knowledge session with this set of rules:
rule "new case"
when
$object : Object(processed==false) from entry-point "my stream"
then
ProcessInstance
processInstance=kcontext.getKnowledgeRuntime().createProcessInstance("my.Process",
parameters);
insert(processInstance);
end
rule "complete"
ruleflow-group "process complete"
no-loop true
when
$processInstance: WorkflowProcessInstance()
then
System.out.println("Fired!" + $processInstance);
end
And a process that runs a time consuming task before reaching a
bussinessruletask node that calls the "process complete" group of rules.
What is happening from Drool's expert point of view is the following
sequence of events:
1 - A fact is inserted that triggers the rule "new case". An Activation
is inserted into the agenda.
2 - As this is running in a fireUntilHalt loop then, almost
inmediatelly, the previous activation is fired and it's consquence is
evaluated leading to the insertion of the process instance as a fact in the
knowledge session. The process is now executing.
3 - This very new fact triggers the activation of the rule "complete"
( as it's only condition is that a processinstance exists ). It's
consequence gets evaluated and as it belongs to a group of rules, an
Activation is added to the ruleFlowGroup inside the Agenda. Nothing happens
thereafter.
4 - Another fact of the same type arrives and steps 1,2 and 3 execute
for the new fact. Now, the agenda has two Activations stored in the
ruleFlowGroup.
5 - At this time, the task in the first process ends, the
businessruletask gets executed and JBPM calls "activateRuleFlowGroup" on
the Agenda and the rule flow group gets activated.
6 - Inmediatelly the group of rules fires two activations ( both queued
at process fact insertion when the process was started ), when only one
process ended.
7 - So at least one rule gets evaluated for a process instance that
didn't belong to it .. :(
Then , "We have added special logic to make sure that a variable
processInstance of type WorkflowProcessInstance
will only match to the current process instance and not to other process
instances in the Working Memory." doesn't hold to be true, as our rule is
fired *before* it's process asks Drools to do so.
We've tested this behaviour in Drools 5.1.0, 5.2.0 and 5.3.0. All fail to
fulfill the requirements in the documentation.
What's worring us is that there seems to be no difference between actions
in the agenda as they're instances of AgendaItem class wich has no means to
discriminate between Activations ( at least there's no clear path to guess
the attached process instance ).
Bug report?
If this is a bug ( or lack of use case ) we will be more than happy to
submit a patch for it, just will need some hints...

Testing for global variable
by Chris Selwyn
Is there a way to test for the existence of a global variable in a StatelessKnowledgeSession before inserting a SetGlobal command into a BatchExecutionCommand?
I am trying to write a rules executor class that may execute some rulesets that need a particular global variable and some that don't.
So I would like to be able to automatically test whether the rules that I am about to execute have the global variable and if they do not then not to insert the SetGlobal into the batch.
I am using DRools 5.1
