Re: [rules-users] Caching results in temperory variables
Thanks for your response Greg. As you said this is what i tried to fix the issue
by creating a UserResult obj that has score as a property and inserting the same
in working memory. I update the results in subsequent rules in the "then"
clause. There are some issues that i faced in this as well :-
-- In my last rule if i want to do a check on score property of my result
object in the "when" clause the score has not been updated .
-- however if i do the same check in the "then" clause it seems to work
properly.
-- I tried to overcome by doing an update in one of my rules to check if that
would work. That however went into an infinite loop. So i used the
"lock-on-active true" property . However it seemed to work well for only the
first user object and doesn't work for other user objects that are loaded later.
Below is the sample rule file . If the scenario is not clear pls do let me know
and i will send across the different drls as attachments .
salience 200
when
User ($id : id)
then
UserResult urslt = new UserResult ($id);
insert ($id)
end
salience 100
lock-on-active truewhen
$usr : User (language.keySet contains "Japanese", $j_score :
language["Japanese"])
$urslt : UserResult (id == $usr.id)
then
$usrlt.setLangScore("Japanese", $j_score);
end
salience 50
lock-on-active truewhen
User (language.keySet contains "French", $f_score :
language["French"])
$urslt : UserResult (id == $usr.id)
then
$usrlt.setLangScore("French", $_score);
update ($usrlt);
end
salience 25
when
UserResult (score > 4) // does not work
then
// if ($usr_rslt.getScore() > 4) --> works well
// update the db
end

You must either update an existing working memory object or insert a new working
memory object with the results. That's how rules communicate with each other.

Hi,
I am using the version 5.x of drools and i have a scenario where i want to hold
the result of
a test in one rule to a temperory variable . This result will then be used in
another rule that will be fired
later in the sequence .
For ex :
salience 100
when
User (language.keySet contains "Japanese", $j_score :
language["Japanese"])
then
// do something
end
salience 50
when
User (language.keySet contains "French", $f_score :
language["French"])
then
// do something
end
salience 25
when
eval (($j_score + $f_score) > 4)
then
// update the same to db
end
Is this possible in Drools 5.x ?

Manav
