Re: [rules-users] Inconsistent behaviour of insertLogical in rules having from pattern

Forgot to say : using drools 5.6.FINAL De: "Vincent LEGENDRE" <vincent.legendre(a)eurodecision.com&gt; À: "Rules Users List" <rules-users(a)lists.jboss.org&gt; Envoyé: Jeudi 28 Août 2014 15:28:49 Objet: [rules-users] Inconsistent behaviour of insertLogical in rules having from pattern Hi all, It is 2 days I am fighting with a strange behaviour of insertLogical in rules having from pattern in conditions : it works the first time, and not after ... ----------------------------------------- Here is my use-case (simplified) : I have a class that represent a Flight. A Flight has a start/end datetime and is associated with a Airplane and a list of Crew : class Flight { String airplaneId; List<String> crewIds; Date start; Date end; } I want to maintain an alert list that contains all overlaps for each airplane and each crew. So I have rules like: rule "Overlap Airplane" when $f1 : Flight($airplaneId : airplaneId) $f2 : Flight(this != $1, airplaneId == $airplaneId, ... and periods intersecting ... ) then insertLogical(new Alert(...)); end rule "Overlap Crews" when $f1 : Flight() $crew : String from $f1.getCrewIds() $f2 : Flight(this != $1, eval($f2.getCrewIds().contains($crew)) , ... and periods intersecting ... ) then insertLogical(new Alert(...)); end ----------------------------------------- Ok. So what I do to test all that stuff : - create a new session - add a first single Flight --> no alerts at all, normal - add a second Flight insersecting the first one with same airplane and same crews list --> 3 new alerts inserted (one for airplane, one for each crew) : normal - remove this second Flight --> the 3 preivous alerts are retracted : still ok - re-add this second Flight --> only the 'airplane' rule triggers, I only get one new alert insteads of the previous same 3 .... The alerts not inserted correspond to the rule having 'from' in it ----------------------------------------- To test that it is the source of the problem, I add a new explicit association object that I insert in WM : class CrewAffectation { String idCrew; String idFlight; } For each inserted Flight, I also insert corresponding new CrewAffectation objects. (in case of retract, I retract them of course). I change the last rule to something like : rule "Overlap Crews" when $f1 : Flight($id1 : id $f2 : Flight(this != $1, $id2 : id, ... and periods intersecting ... ) $crewAff1 : CrewAffectation($idCrew : idCrew, idFlight== $id1) $crewAff2 : CrewAffectation(idCrew == $idCrew, idFlight== $id2) then insertLogical(new Alert(...)); end And with this 'no-from' approach, everything is working as expected. ----------------------------------------- In addition, I suspect the truth maintenance system to have leaks, and notably in the source kBase. Why ? Because I was facing problems by reusing the same kBase to generate multiples kSessions : The first session created reacted well, while all the folowing not. And it was in fact the same problem as the one described here : usage of from and insertLogical in the same rule. The first created session adds and retract my 3 alerts, the second created session only adds the airplane alert. With using the explicit association object, I can reuse my kBase and everything is working well. ----------------------------------------- Does someone already faced the problem ? Does it looks like a real bug to dev team or am I doing something wrong (but as it work once, I guess it is a bug) ?
