RE: [rules-users] Agenda group doesn't stay set?

Actually between yours and Mark's responses this is very useful. Thanks so much! -A ________________________________ From: rules-users-bounces(a)lists.jboss.org [mailto:rules-users-bounces@lists.jboss.org] On Behalf Of Kris Verlaenen Sent: Monday, April 28, 2008 2:39 PM To: Rules Users List Subject: Re: [rules-users] Agenda group doesn't stay set? Ruleflow groups allow you to group rules together and rules inside a ruleflow group only execute when the ruleflow-group is active. You can use ruleflow groups inside a ruleflow but they can be used outside ruleflows as well. You could manually activate and deactivate ruleflow groups using workingMemory.getAgenda().[de]activateRuleflowGroup(name). You can decide whether a ruleflow group should auto-deactivate if it contains no more activations or not. I guess it's not exactly what you are looking for but it might be useful.

I'm writing rules in different agenda groups and witnessing something curious. Right now when I put my fireAllRules() in a callback that is triggered every couple of seconds I have to do this: Callback executes on receipt of a heartbeat message: { session.setFocus("my_agenda"); session.fireAllRules(); } What I would prefer to do is this is set my agenda group external to the callback so I have the liberty to simply use the callback to execute rules on whatever agenda I give focus to elsewhere: Callback executes on receipt of a heartbeat message: { session.fireAllRules(); } But this doesn't work. My understanding is that unless you explicitly set the agenda-group each time, then fireAllRules() resets your agenda group to "MAIN"? Is there a way to get the session to retain focus on the agenda group I specify until I see fit to change it? Allen F.
