I believe that the original question is that for a single instance of class Test t, fire the rule when t.x == t.y + 1 (where 't' refers to the *same* instance of class Test). I believe the rule above would match any instance of class Test whose x value is equal to the value of the instance field y from *any* instance of class Test plus 1. Does that make sense? _______________________________________________ rules-users mailing list rules-users(a)lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/rules-users
