Hi ,

The very reason i used to compare two object reference is that i got then executed multiple time when i do duplicate check between object properties. so i beleive the pattern match happen more than a time

for example

 when
     $obj1:object($code:code,$stdate:startdate);
     $obj2:object(code==$code,startdate=$stdate);
 then

if(obj1!=obj2)
     System.out.println("Fired");

My questions are 

1) In 3.0.6 is there any other way to avoid this multiple check other than using eval(which affects performance i beleive). i can't use this operator in 3.0.6

2) related to this i have one more query. how to check properties within the object itself

for example i want to do

 when
     $obj1:object($code:code,$stdate:startdate,$enddate:enddate > $stdate, reasoncode == $code);
 then

     System.out.println("Fired");

i beleive the above throws error in 3.0.6 (nullpointer related to alpha node)

 

Earlier reply is highly appreciated

 

Thanks and Regs,

Bassha

   Yes, in 3.0.6 you will need eval. But also it is important to remember
that by default, in 3.0.6, an object will never match more than one pattern.
So in the given example, ob1 and ob2 will always be different and the check
is not needed.
   In 4.0, things are a bit different, as by default a single object may
match more than one pattern at once and we introduced the "this" keyword to
check for object identity.
