Re: [rules-users] In drools what is the exact difference between Insert and Update ??

Hi Vincent Legendre Thanks for you valuable reply. We had implemented new technologies in our legacy project one of them is drools(separated our business logic).We had implemented many rules and also used UPDATE in that. But from client (Architect) we got strict instruction that we should not used *UPDATE* because it re executes the all relevant rules even though we had used *no loop true* attribute to avoid re execution.Because of strict requirement I am trying to find out some alternative for update but still not got any success.Even if I want to use UPDATE I need some concrete reason. we are re Implementing our existing rules which we had written already using below comments given by client architect. 1.remove all salience from rules and make the rules independent (don't decide its execution flow) 2.we should not used function in drools try to avoid them write your most of the logic in rules only (If you are using means there will be no difference between java and drools) 3.Activation group we had used in project but they told us to remove it from drool files 4.Don't use UPDATE and Global in drools . 5.you should not call any java function from drools Write all those logic in drools. According to client we should write the rules in such a manner so they can handle Independently.If rules becomes Independent then rules engine will decide which rules needs to be execute first.We should not put any constraint on rule engine by using salience and Activation group. -- View this message in context: http://drools.46999.n3.nabble.com/In-drools-what-is-the-exact-difference-...
