Hi,

Has anyone used the “matches” operator? =

In our application we need to support startWith, endsWith operators for string variable. I am thinking of using matches operator. But= the ‘matches’ operator is not working. I am trying the following cod= e

rule "Hello World"

when

&nb= sp; m : Message(message matches "Hello*")

then

&nb= sp; System.out.println( "Hello World"<= span style=3D'font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New";color:black'>); <= /font>

end

And the value set in the message is “Hello World= 221;. But it is not going into the then clause.

If anyone has already used matches operator I would like= to know how we can use it for startswith, endsWith. How do we specify the regul= ar expression? Can we use “*”

Thanks,

Ashwini
