RE: [rules-users] drrols type declaration and how are the equals and hashcode for those types implemented...

I could write a patch emphasizing the use of it, but first I would like to understand the metadata part. The following metadata that I saw on some blogs is also in my interest: @role, @timestamp, and the documentation misses them too, I found them only in some blog entries. Can you point me to any resource (blogs, code ...) that can give me a better understanding so that I can write something of decent quality? Also it would be nice to have metadata support in the guvnor fact model builder.

We need to improve docs on that, as it is only mentioned briefly: https://hudson.jboss.org/hudson/job/drools/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/ trunk/target/docs/drools-expert/html/ch07.html#d0e3206 The @key will do it for you: declare Person name : String ssn : BigDecimal @key age : int end Wanna write a quick patch for the docs emphasizing the use of it? Thanks, []s Edson 2009/2/23 Zoltan Farkas <zoly(a)daxtechnologies.com&gt; declare Person name : String ssn: BigDecimal age : int end Is there a way to define what field/s identify a Person? In the example above I would like to define ssn as the unique indentifier for person, so person1 == person2 if person1.ssn == person2.ssn. In this case equals would use only the field ssn to determine if 2 person objects are equal. The hashcode should also be based only on the ssn field. I want to use Person with assertBehaviour equality...
