Edison, first of all, thanks for your quick reply!
Those initial words caught my attention, although: “By default, Drools does not start any internal thread”…
What do you mean “by default”?
I know there are ways to force the event to be expired but I’m looking for a solution that doesn’t involve to write new rules.
For example, I’m using this kind of solution:
declare A
@role( event )
@expires( 1h )
end
rule "internal - expiring A"
timer(int:1h)
when
$a : A() from entry-point "incoming"
then
retract($a);
end
Although this solution works (from Drools 5.1), I’m forced to write a rule to expire an event that’s supposed to be expired initially.
There’s a simpler way to do this? I’m thinking correctly?
Once again, thanks!

Subject: Re: [rules-users] Basic doubt regarding Drools Fusion - @expires
By default, Drools does not start any internal thread, so that you can embed it in non-multithread applications or in JEE containers. That means that the actual release of events in such cases depends on triggers. In your example, after 1h has passed, whenever something happens to the session (a new rule is fired, a new event is inserted, the session clock is advanced, etc), the event will be expired as part of the action. Remember though that it only happens when running in STREAM mode. In CLOUD mode, event garbage collection does not make sense and will not happen.

Hi all!
I’ve got a really basic doubt… I’ve read several documentation regarding it but I think I need some advice here…
Imagine that I have an event:
declare A
@role( event )
@expires( 1h )
end
On my Java code, I call “fireAllRules()” method every time that I put an event into the working memory.
My doubt: When does event A expires?
a) One hour after it was inserted (time-based and without the “fireAllRules()” method call) or
b) by calling “fireAllRules()” method (event-based)
T.I.A.
