Yes, your rule entered in an infinite loop because when every time you
insert/modify/retract a Fact, rules are reevaluated to check if the
insertion/modification/retraction generates activations or not. In your
case, your rule is being reevaluated every time you update your $a object,
the evaluation ends firing the rule, and this starts an endless loop.
If you only have this behavior with this rule, you can consider using the
"no-loop" attribute. If your problem is multiple rules being re executed
(and you don't wont that) you can use "lock-on-active" attribute. Try to
read the documentation about these attributes for further information.
It is very important for the people new in drools to understand the life
cycle of a rule.

Hi,
I tried what you said but program goes into an infinite loop.
It does not break out of the when loop only.
I did exactly as you mentioned.
In the test information I put in a.type = "Prod"
And a.bObject(new B());
Any idea whats wrong??
Thanks,
M

You can't modify bobject, becuase it doesn't exist inside the session. You
just created it a few lines above. Maybe you need an insert() or maybe you
need the bobject reference from the LHS. Something like this:
*rule* "prod"
*when*
$a :A(Type == "Prod" , objectB != "")
*then*
B bobject = *new* B();
$a.getObjectB().setType( "Prod" );
$a.getObjectB().setId($a.getNumber().getId());
*update*($a);
* end*
Note that you need to update $a and not B, because A is the inserted Fact
in
your session.
