All bound variables are always scoped to the rule, but you can use rules inheritance to extend the rules with your aggregates. It is not the same thing, but might achieve the results you are looking for.

Hello all,

 

I want to create a baseline rules file with Fusion that does some basic aggregating that I know I will need later…things like keep running averages over the last minute or so of several object values.

 

Is it possible to then “inherit” or at least reference those aggregates I am keeping track of from another .drl file in some way…allowing me to always keep my basic aggregation functions in one rule file and then add additional rules/functions to my rule memory space later…or must any further rules that wish to reference those aggregate or statistics objects also be contained within the same .drl file?  I understand I can have multiple .drl files, but I am wondering specifically about referencing objects and variables created in another rules file.

 

 

Thanks,


Chris
