[rules-users] toString

Good morning. I'm new to Drools and need a little assistance on how to compare a string to a numeric. Example: ShipmentHeader transMode is a numeric, while the TransMode is a character. (We have a legacy system which we can't change... for now). Is there an easy way to do it w/o having to run an eval? rule "00310 Fail" when #conditions $status : SendToCustomsStatus() exists ValidationReference(validationNo == 310) exists ValidationControl(validationNo == 310) exists ShipmentHeader(portLading == 0,$transMode : transMode) TransMode(transMode == $transMode, portLadingRequired == "Y") then #actions $status.fail(310); end Thanks, Mike -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/toString-tf4029720.html#a11446453 Sent from the drools - user mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
