setting an ArrayList on a global value like this workingMemory.setGlobal("arrayList", menuArray); on the java code and like this on the rule global ArrayList arrayList;

Hi Joel,

The whole point of globals is that you don't need to assert them you just set them from the calling code, ie:

workingMemory.setGlobal("myList", arrayList);

You can then use myList in your consequence.

There is no way to use an asserted object in a consequence without binding it to a variable in one of the conditions.

cheers
Steve

ok..after playing a while with this global thing...i found out that global variables cant be asserted...

any other idea of how to use an asserted arrayList on the consequence without writing it on the conditions?

Hi Joel,

I think you should rather use a global for the ArrayList:

global java.util.List myList

rule "cancel_menu"
when
        MegaTransferObject(other_EffectiveOrderTypeDsl != null, other_EffectiveOrderTypeDsl == Constants.NEW_OPEN_ORDER_TYPE)
        not MegaTransferObject(orders_FkOrderStatusId != null, orders_FkOrderStatusId == Constants.PENDING_TO_BE_SUBMITTED_ORDER_STATUS)
then
        myList.add(new String[]{ Constants.SERVICE_ASSURANCE_TREE_MENU_DSL , Constants.SERVICE_ASSURANCE_MENU_CANCEL});
end

btw - you don't need to put "and" at the end of each constraint.

cheers
Steve

end

i do an assert of an empty arrayList...
when i use this arrayList : ArrayList() on the when the rule fire an error...why?
will the ArrayList be the same on all the rules (i think it will but want to make sure)

getResourceAsStream(ruleDrl) expects to find a drl file based on the location represented by " ruleDrl". It should be noted that the location should be accessible from the CLASSPATH. You could get a null pointer exception, if the location is not accessible from your CLASSPATH.

Trying to figure out the new rule system...
but it doesnt work...

This is my rule:

package com.prtc.struts.rules

import com.prtc.db.MegaTransferObject
import java.util.ArrayList
import com.prtc.struts.Constants

rule "cancel_menu"
    when
        megaTO : MegaexistMegaTransferObject()
        megaTO(other_EffectiveOrderTypeDsl != null) and
        megaTO(other_EffectiveOrderTypeDsl == Constants.NEW_OPEN_ORDER_TYPE ) and
        megaTO(orders_FkOrderStatusId != null) and
        megaTO(orders_FkOrderStatusId == Constants.PENDING_TO_BE_SUBMITTED_ORDER_STATUS)

    then
        System.out.println("Hello");
end

part of my code:
        InputStreamReader ir = new InputStreamReader(RuleBuilderMgr.class.getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(ruleDrl)); //the null pointer is from this line.
        builder.addPackageFromDrl(ir);

this is the result:
