Hi,<br>
<br>
I understand Drools does support enumerated lists of values for checking<br>
conditions and assigning consequences. Am i mistaken?<br></blockquote><div><br>It&#39;s using a Rete network, and I&#39;ve never heard &quot;enumerated lists of values&quot; in any description of the involved algorithms. Where does this come from? <br>

The ID would be a numeric value of 8 or 12 bytes in length. The Blacklist<br>
validation would be just the basic full word match.<br></blockquote><div><br>Basically a subset of positive &quot;long&quot; values; if area codes are involved, distribution is not regular (even within a certain number of  digits). But a hash lookup on the String value should give you good performance.<br>
<br>   Subscriber( $addr: address )<br>   Blacklist( set contains $addr )<br>then<br>   refuse...<br><br>-W<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
