Re: [rules-users] Rule one-by-one comparison

Can you share what you actual requirement is and why you need to do it? Can you perhaps change the problem into one that is simpler to solve? Ie rather than comparing knowledge bases can you get the input to these knowledgebases? Can you control what that input is, if it is a DSL or a spreadsheet then your comparision job will probably become a lot simpler.

I will look into it. Any other ideas, anyone? _ miguel 2011/8/26 Esteban Aliverti <esteban.aliverti@gmail.com<mailto:esteban.aliverti@gmail.com>> You can try to use drools-verifier. This project basically lets you define rules about your rules. You can have a look at its tests to see how it works. You can get more info about drools-verifier here: http://community.jboss.org/wiki/DroolsVerifier And here you can see how are we using drools-verifier inside Guvnor: http://ilesteban.wordpress.com/2010/04/05/guvnors-field-constraints/ Best Regards, XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Esteban Aliverti - Developer @ http://www.plugtree.com - Blog @ http://ilesteban.wordpress.com 2011/8/26 miguel machado <mls.machado@gmail.com<mailto:mls.machado@gmail.com>> Hi there everybody, I need to perform rule comparison on a project I'm working on using drools expert 5.0. For a specific feature implementation, I have two different knowledge bases with several rules which I need to compare, one by one. By comparing, I mean "inspect" certain conditions within the LHS. Currently, I'm able to obtain several attributes from rules (org.drools.rule.Rule), such as the agenda-group and the rule name and a few others, but I haven't been able to do it all. Going deeper, there is LiteralConstraint (for simple conditions) which I can parse and obtain data. However, I don't know how to do it for OR-conditions, which I guess represents a MultiRestrictionFieldConstraint. Perhaps there is another way? I know this may seem like a very unorthodox thing to do, but I don't think there is a better way of comparing knowledge packages (except for full text comparison). Is there?
