Hi,
 
Christian Spurk gave a good link to regular expression syntax.
 
DRL is well documented in the Drools documentation (or use the guided editor in Eclipse).
 
With kind regards,
 
Mike

Matches uses regular expressions not (SQL) wildcards.

I suggest you reformat your search string.

Hi,

I need to use wild card chars matching in .drl file.
(Assume field filename has data as "XYZ-888-10022008")

If the filename contains string "888" in it
         then target Queue will be "jms://INBOUND.888.EDI"

I am writing a rule as follows:

rule "Test 888"
      no-loop
      when
              m: Message( fileName matches "*888*", message : message )
      then
              System.out.println( "In EATech.drl File" );
              m.setTargetEdiQ("jms://INBOUND.888.EDI");
              update( m );
end

But its not working. Error is "Dangling meta character '*' near index 0
*888*"

If anyone has used wild card chars in .drl file please respond
