I was just looking for a more "short hand" syntax, one where I would not need to declare "theOrder".

On the same subject though, I compiled my rules with the DRL/DSL editors in Eclipse (very nice by the way) and I am getting a compilation error being caused by my DSL entry:

[consequence][]Manually release the Order=setManualRelease(drools.getRule().getName());retract(theOrder);

It seems that there is an issue with the retract(theOrder);statement.

The method retract(Order) is undefined for the type Rule_Maximum_Order_Amount_Exceeded_0

Might you have any idea as to why this would be occurring or exactly what the message is meaning?

Thanks for the help...

Yes, that is correct.
Why do you mean by a "cleaner" way?

I'm using a DSL with my DRL file and I've read through the documentation but I've gotten hung-up on the syntax. Below is a rule from my DRL and the expansion in my DSL.

My rule in the DRL:
rule "Maximum Order Amount Exceeded"
salience 9800
when
There is an Order with
- an amount that exceeds 100000
then
Manually release the Order

end

My DSL:
[condition][]There is an Order with=Order()
[condition][]- an amount that exceeds {number}=amount >= {number}
[consequence][]Manually release the Order=setManualRelease(drools.getRule().getName());

What I would like to do is add to my consequence the following in red:
[consequence][]Manually release the Order=setManualRelease(drools.getRule().getName());retract(theOrder);

I know that I would need to modify my condition statement to be able to use the variable theOrder in my call to retract:
[condition][]There is an Order with=theOrder : Order()

but is there a cleaner way to achieve this?
