Re: [rules-users] Insert, fire, then retract from consequence

Certainly. But the fireAllRules() would have to address a session
different from the one that's executing the consequence.
I have similar behavior using the API that I'd like to be able to do inside
a rule, as well.
A consequence is just Java, so go ahead.
The idea is that once all the rules that cause activations get fired, it
gets retracted immediately. This is so that we don't have to have cleanup
rules all over the place, and have to ensure that the salience is set
correctly.
Is "it" a fact? You can retract it from the place where it was
inserted, for instance. Well-designed rule sets don't have "cleanup
rules all over the place". And salience is a last resort, not a
first-class way of designing rule sets.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Looks like it.
