[rules-users] How to limit results from a collect statement

Does anyone know a method to limit the number of results from a collect statement? I was just wondering how to do something like this: $myList : List() from collect( MyObject(myField == "something") ) limit 3 //it should put in $myList just the first 3 objects retrieved I'm quite sure there is nothing in Drools which can natively support something like that. So, how to do that, if needed? I tried this, but it seems not to be working (I can't understand why, though): $myList : List() from collect( MyObject(myField == "something") ) $myObject : MyObject() from $myList eval( $myList.indexOf($myObject) < 3 ) Indeed, it doesn't work because the link beetween $myList and $myObject seems to be released during any execution of the rule (In fact $myList.contains($myObject) returns false! Again, I can't understand why...) Any advice would be really appreciated! Regards, CG -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/How-to-limit-results-from-a-collect-statement-tf423...
