Re: [rules-users] Rule using accumulate

Offers already have a creationTimestamp, that could be used for this. However, it's not clear to me how to write a rule that matches only the Offer with the minimum creationTimestamp. Something like: rule "Match Offer"        when                $b : PartiallyCoveredBid(uncoveredSize>0, $p:price)                $o : Offer(price<$p, alreadyUsed==false, creationTimestamp<[all other matching Offer creationTimestamps ])        then                [ add Offer $o to Bid $b] end is that possible? - Andres Wolfgang Laun-2 wrote: > > If the age of Offers is so important it ought to be represented as > fact data.
