Wolfgang, thanks much. Helps me understand what's going on under the hood a
little better.
I'm having a similar issue with the next higher container. I have say,
PathElements which contain a collection of Ports. Same problem as before -
if one Port goes down then the PathElement goes down. I can't seem to
express it properly in DRL
The only thing that comes to me is:
rule "pe down"
when
// pe is active
$pe : PathElement(state == State.UP )
// and any one of the ports are down
Port ( state == State.DOWN ) from $pe.ports
then
System.out.println(" setting pe down" + $pe );
modify($pe) {
setState( State.DOWN);
}
end
However, like my other naive attempts, it is not firing after the
Notification is inserted into WM. I tried many variations using a 'collect'
clause, etc to no avail. Any additional insight would be greatly
appreciated.
BTW, once i get a handle on the one-to-many associations I promise I'll
stop :-)

The difference between these two rules is that the first one is triggered
by
a change in WM - the emergence of a matching Notification. The second,
however, is evaluated when the Port enters WM, presumably with its
Card in working order. Subsequently, Port doesn't change and so evaluation
is never retried.
Two correct versions:
when
$card : Card( state == State.DOWN )
$port : Port($name : name , state == State.UP, card == $card)
then
when
$port : Port($name : name , state == State.UP, $card: card )
Card( this == $card, state == State.DOWN )
then
Or, assuming that Port must follow Card, for going UP and DOWN:
when
$card : Card( $stateCard: state )
$port : Port($name : name , state != $stateCard, card == $card)
then
modify($port) {
setState($stateCard)
}
