Re: [rules-users] Problem with simple Fusion test case

Hi, I'm new to Drools (this is my first post) and am running into problems understanding the temporal aspects of it. I am trying to create a simple test case, using the pseudo-clock to control time. I declare and add a number of events with different start times (@timestamp) and durations (@duration). I'd then like to advance the pseudo-clock by hand, calling fireAllRules() between clock-ticks. I have a single rule that I would hope would fire on events that are 'valid', i.e. their (start_time < clock) and their (start_time + duration > clock). I'm seeing ALL events being picked up the first time I fireAllRules(). I'd really appreciate an explanation of what I'm missing here. Some code: I have a POJO Event class: public class Event { public String name; public long start; public long dur; //... constructor, getters, setters omitted for brevity } I have a .drl file with an event declaration and a single rule in it: package myPackage.Event import myPackage.Event declare Event @role( event ) @timestamp ( start ) @duration ( dur ) end rule "events" when e : Event() then System.out.println(e.name); end My scaffolding creates a STREAM based, pseudo-clock configured stateful KnowledgeSession, and reads the .drl rules using the standard code from the examples. I create a number of Events: Event e1 = new Event("myEvent1", 0, 1000); Event e2 = new Event("myEvent1", 10000, 20000); ksession.insert(e1) ... etc. Then I fireAllRules(), advance the clock and fire them again. I'm seeing the second event being matched on the first fireAllRules(). I'd not have expected it to fire until the clock > 10000. I'm sure Drools is doing the right thing, and I'm not, but I can't work out what. The examples of the temporal operators all refer to a second event to be compared to. Also, I can't find an example of referencing the drools system clock value (in this case the pseudo-clock) from within a rule match section. So, what am I doing wrong? If I can make my example clearer please let me know. Thanks in advance, Robin -- View this message in context: http://drools.46999.n3.nabble.com/Problem-with-simple-Fusion-test-case-tp...
