Hi Ed, no need to apologize, you have been invaluable in my first steps
towards Drooling :-D so thanks for all your help, it is GREATLY appreciated
:clap:.
We have a few scenarios in mind but aren't really implementing them yet,
just trying to see if sliding windows works the way we think it does. In the
simple rule I wrote above, I basically want to check if two facts are
temporally close.
Yes, you are correct. I didn't pay enough attention to the manual and didn't
use STREAM mode to enter in my facts. I will use the manual insertion
process found in "Example 2.10. Inserting facts into an entry point" of
section "2.3. Streams Support" to update my code. And, I will update my rule
to specify a "from entry-point <Specific Stream>".
Also, could you comment on the simple rule I am using? Does it look like it
should work after I do the updates? Or is my logic incorrect?
Thanks again.
Ober0n,
Sorry for the delay on answering. I am on a trip with limited internet
connection.
I am interested in your experience with the sliding windows, since the
tests are working. Maybe it is a scenario not covered by the tests.
In any case, what is probably happening is that you are not configuring
the engine to work in STREAM mode. The default mode is CLOUD and it does not
support sliding windows. It seems the engine is silently failing in this
case, when the compiler raise an error to warn the user.
I just committed some docs on this subject:
https://hudson.jboss.org/hudson/job/drools/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/t...
(plz, wait for hudson to rebuild the docs or build docs yourself).
Feedback welcome. I will complement the sliding window docs.

Still trying to get sliding windows to work (basing my code off of the
Eclipse supplied "Hello World" example). I don't think I fully understand
how it works yet so I'm trying to simplify things even further by writing
a
simple rule that is meant to say:
if (current_message = "Hello" AND exists( goodbye_message within
sliding_window(3 seconds) ))
then print("There was a GOODBYE message before the HELLO message." )
In other words: This rule should fire if the current Hello World message
was
preceeded within 3 seconds by a goodbye message.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I wrote a new rule for this:
declare Message
@role( event )
end
rule "Goodbye before Hello World"
when
Message( status == Message.HELLO )
exists( Message( status == Message.GOODBYE ) over
window:time( 3s ) )
then
System.out.println( "There was a GOODBYE message before the
HELLO
message." );
end
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To send the messages: (ksession is a StatefulKnowledgeSession)
...
ksession.insert(goodbye_message);
ksession.fireAllRules();
Thread.sleep(5000);
ksession.insert(hello_message);
ksession.fireAllRules();
...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I expect to get nothing back since I sent the Hello message 5 seconds
after
the goodbye message (outside the sliding window of 3 seconds). But, for
some
reason the rule fires and I get one:
"There was a GOODBYE message before the HELLO message."
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
