Re: [rules-users] how to access process variables within wait statenode timers?

Kris, Thanks a lot! It's true that I do have access to process variables if I assign them already when I'm starting the process (passing the value as a parameter of the startProcess() method). In my first code sample above, I assigned the timer variable only in an OnEntry action of the wait state node, which had no effect... (Maybe this is only true for version 5.0 (?)) But anyway my timer with a variable delay still doesn't work as I expected: The process stays in the wait state until my application terminates, although the constraint condition is met after 3 seconds (I print it out each time the timer fires). So it looks as if the constraint condition is not continuously evaluated... although I'm calling context.getProcessInstance().getWorkingMemory().fireAllRules() after every update... do you see a reason for that in this updated small code sample? http://drools-java-rules-engine.46999.n3.nabble.com/file/n996108/demo.var... demo.variableTimer.v2.zip It's interesting that if I don't insert the timer variable into the working memory, the timer even continues firing after my application terminated (since the constraint is never true and the process stays in the wait state)... So inserting it does have some kind of effect on the evaluation of the constraint, simply not immediately.
