Hi ,

I am trying to insert fact as arraylist and then i wanted to get the objects from the arraylist based on some condition.

like Arryalist<Product> fact was inserted into working memory, I want to get some product from the arrylist based on condition ( productType==??).

Is there any solution for this .

Thanks

Correct. When there are no more instantiations (a rule plus a set of objects that match the rule's conditions) on the agenda, then rule firing ceases. With version 5 of drools they added the ability to keep the session ready and available to react even when there are no instantiations on the agenda, but you must make a separate method call to do that. (StatefulSession.fireUntilHalt() instead of fireAllRules())
