Re: [rules-users] Events are not automatically expiring from working memory

I wanted to post something I found in case others are scratching their heads on this. Drools Fusion user guide indicates: 2.8.2. Inferred expiration offset Another way for the engine to calculate the expiration offset for a given event is implicitly, by analyzing the temporal constraints in the rules. So I needed to check that my rules were working correctly, so I setup some temporal rules and after adding some events and firing the rules, I put my code into a loop: while (true) { Thread.sleep(10000); for (FactHandle h : ksession.getFactHandles()) { System.out.println(" :" + h.toString()); } } To hope to find that there were no Events left in working memory after all the time periods have passed. but they were always showing as still in memory.. After spending ages trying to understand my rules, I found that the Events are not expired until the next call of ksession.fireAllRules() which makes sense.. Perhaps that should be added to the manual? Cheers Ric -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Events-are-not-automatically-expiring-from-working-...
