Re: [rules-users] Ways to list the globals

I guess the answer depends on what you are trying to do... Getting the names of the globals in a knowledge base is effectively a bit tricky and may be worthy a feature request JIRA. You would have to look into each KnowledgePackage in the KnowledgeBase: for ( KnowledgePackage pkg : drools.getKnowledgeRuntime().getKnowledgeBase().getKnowledgePackages() ) { .... pkg.getGlobalVariables(); } This should give you ALL the **NAME-TYPE** declarations, regardless of whether a global is set or not. Getting the key-value pairs of globals set at runtime can be done using the knowledgeRuntime.getGlobals(), as in your first option. This should give you ALL the **NAME-VALUE** pairs which have been set, regardless of whether that was done from java or within the DRL. If this is not the case, please post your rule, code and Drools version, so that it will be possible to check whether this is a bug or not. The engine seems to behave correctly on the 5.6.x master development branch. Best Davide On 05/01/2013 06:01 PM, Sonata wrote:
