The &quot;Expert&quot; manual says:<br><code class="literal"><a id="d0e5324"><br>insertLogical(new</a></code>
<a id="d0e5324">      <span class="emphasis"><em>Something</em></span><code class="literal">());</code> is similar to
      insert, but the object will be automatically retracted when there are no
      more facts to support the truth of the currently firing rule.</a><br><br>In other words, as soon as the condition of that rule is not true any more, the Engine retracts the logically inserted fact. This is commonly referred to as &quot;truth mainenance&quot;.<br>

Hello Team,<br>
<br>
Sorry for asking very simple question but didn&#39;t found the answer in the<br>
Mailing List.<br>
<br>
Would like to know the core importance of insertLogical in Drools. What is<br>
the purpose of using insertLogical and how it is different from update() and<br>
insert() statements in Drools?<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance,<br>
Asutosh<br>
