Thanks for your response.

I don't think contains will work in this case.  I need to match if a collection contains one, and only one, of another collection.  So " ('a','b','c') contains one of ('a','b','e') " should not match, where "('a','b','c') contains ('a','2','3')" should match.

Thanks,

Dave Cracauer

You have the answer in your example, reserved word "contains" will give you that information.

Hi,
I'm getting stuck on this and I'm hoping someone can help..
I need to be able to check that a collection contains one, and only one item
from another collection.

Ideally, I would do something like this:

 a:Answer(responses contains one of ("a","b","c"));

Is there a way do do this without resorting to evals or predicate
expressions? (drools 4.07)

Thanks,
Dave
