Hi Thomas,

A quick solution would be to use agenda groups as follows:

rule "Rule Init"
dialect "java"
    when
        ...
    then
        ...
        drools.setFocus("calculate");
end

rule "Rule 1"
dialect "java"
lock-on-active true
agenda-group "calculate"
    when
        ...
    then
        ...
end

rule "Rule 2"
dialect "java"
lock-on-active true
agenda-group "calculate"
    when
       ...
    then
       ...
end

The result is:
Rule Init
Rule 2
Rule 1

You can also use ruleflow (ruleflow-group) to achieve this. I think it is the preferred way.
Hope it helps.

Best Regards,
Michal

Hello,

thanks for your quick reply.
I understand your explanation, but adding the lock-on-active rule attribute to rule 1 and 2 only results that none of these rules is executed.
What I want to be excuted for the values below:
            TestObject io = new TestObject(TestObject.Type.INPUT);
            io.setDoublePropertyValue(TestObject.PARAMETER1, 0.2);

            TestObject io2 = new TestObject(TestObject.Type.INPUT);
            io2.setDoublePropertyValue(TestObject.PARAMETER1, 7.3);

            insert(io);
            insert(io2);
            fireallrules();

is:
Rule Init
Rule 1
Rule 2

Hi,

Looking at the .drl file, rules 1,2 are updating objects that are part of
their conditions. That will loop even with no-loop set to true.

Look at lock-on-active rule attribute, which may solve your issue.
