[rules-users] Logging Rules Fired on a Fact -- Best Practices

Is there a way to log what rules have interacted with a fact -- and keep the logging with the fact? What are the best practices for that? For example, facts are unmarshalled from an XML stream: <important_fact> <foo>bar</foo> </important_fact> Then my rules interact with it: rule "my rule" no-loop true dialect "mvel" when i : important_fact() then i.setFoo("fee"); end rule "my second rule" no-loop true dialect "mvel" when i : important_fact( foo = "fee" ) then i.setFoo(i.getFoo + "foo"); end Then I'm thinking I'd like the marshalled output to be something like this (except maybe with unique rule IDs instead of just names): <important_fact> <foo>feefoo</foo> <rule_history> <rule>my rule</rule> <rule>my second rule</rule> </rule_history> </important_fact> But I'm pretty new at this. Is that ever done? If so, what are the best practices? If not, maybe there's a good reason, so why not? -- View this message in context: http://drools.46999.n3.nabble.com/Logging-Rules-Fired-on-a-Fact-Best-Prac...
