[rules-users] Using ForEach variables in split constraints

Hello there, I wanted to refer to a variable in a split constraint in a ForEach node. What is the correct way to nest a split node in a ForEach node and refer to the variable of the collection? I have tried the following: a) Start process and insert process into session, providing the map containing the collectionExpression. Using: <import name="org.drools.runtime.process.WorkflowProcessInstance"/> processIntance: WorkflowProcessInstance() $item: MyObject: (this == (processInstance.getVariable("item"))) this doesn't seem to grab the variable like I expected it to. How can I assign processInstance.getVariable("item") itself to a variable? (I imagine this would work if this did) b) Set the variable on the global process from the current context kcontext.getProcessInstance().setVariable("item", kcontext.getVariable("item") I know this is not the right answer. c) Insert the item in an action at the beginning of the loop. Retract it at the end. I then match against the item of type MyObject at the beginning. // in action: insert(item) // in constraint $item: MyObject() // after action retract(item) This requires looping in Java to start the processes individually and setting the variable explicitly each time. This seems a bit of a roundabout way of doing it, what is *the* correct method?
