Re: [rules-users] some pointers for solution

Yep. See attached project. It actually simplifies the java a bit, as now there doesn't need to be any trickery in the contains method for Query. The rule now uses a from clause to get the Criteria directly from the Query: rule "Match" when d : Data() q : Query( size <= d.size ) $total : Number( intValue == q.size ) from accumulate( Criteria( this memberOf d ) from q, count(1) ) then System.out.println("Match: " + d + " and " + q) ; end Try the other methods, though. (The eval 'hack' I included before, and Wolfgang's method.) All of these approaches should have different performance behavior, and I honestly don't know which one is fastest. --- On Sun, 11/8/09, Wishing Carebear <wishing.carebear(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote: > From: Wishing Carebear <wishing.carebear(a)gmail.com&gt; > Subject: Re: [rules-users] some pointers for solution > To: "Rules Users List" <rules-users(a)lists.jboss.org&gt; > Date: Sunday, November 8, 2009, 8:02 PM > Yes Edson, I tried with count and sum. > Both seems to be working fine. > > But with the test case, the Criteria for query also > needs to be inserted in addition to the query and data > objects like shown below: > > Query query = new Query(1); > query.add(new > Criteria(query, "c2", "bas")); > ksession.insert(query); > for(Criteria c : > query) { > ksession.insert(c); > } > > > Is it possible to avoid them. > > Thanks, > cabear > > > > 2009/11/8 Edson Tirelli <ed.tirelli(a)gmail.com&gt; > > > Why not use count() accumulate function? ;) > > > from accumulate( Criteria( this memberOf d, this memberOf q > ), > > count(1) ) > > Edson > > > > > > 2009/11/8 Greg Barton <greg_barton(a)yahoo.com&gt; > > In this case > the accumulate clause is maintaining a counter (total) > that's incremented whenever a Criteria is detected that > is contained in both the Data and Query object matched in > the rule.
