Re: [rules-users] Is there a faster way of doing this in Drools ?

Could you please provide a more detailed example? The usecase you propose is really interesting and the optimization of something very similar is on the todo-list (@salaboy: "request-when" rings a bell?) Now, depending on your exact requirements, there could be various options, more or less "clean" ;) First of all, we should determine whether a) you need a new rule or b) you can just use a parametric rule and carry the parameters in a fact, e.g.: when ParamHolder( $x : threshold, $bid : beanId ) Bean( id == $bid, value > $x ) then ... end If you do need new rules, generating the drl on the fly is feasible but the parsing and compilation is a bit expensive, so maybe one should try to build the internal representation, to save at least the parsing process and "jump" to the RETE construction. Btw, you mentioned that you'd have to generate a rule for each transaction: would that rule "lifecycle" be limited to the transaction too? i.e. would it be possible/necessary to remove the rule once it has been used?
