[rules-users] No eval with backward chaining?
Trying to use eval in a query for backward chaining causes a runtime
crash running Drools 5.5.0. Looks like a bug. The details:
Given some Integer objects as facts,
rule "find triple forward"
when
Integer( $a: intValue )
Integer( $b: intValue > $a )
Integer( $c: intValue > $b )
eval( $a*$a + $b*$b == $c*$c )
then
System.out.println( "fwd: " + $a + " " + $b + " " + $c
);
end
finds Pythagorean triples.
But
query isTriple( Integer $a, Integer $b, Integer $c )
Integer( intValue == $a )
Integer( intValue == $b && > $a )
Integer( intValue == $c && > $b )
eval( $a*$a + $b*$b == $c*$c )
end
intended to be used in combination with
rule "find triple backward"
when
isTriple( $a, $b, $c; )
then
System.out.println( "bwd: " + $a + " " + $b + " " + $c
);
end
causes a nasty runtime error (although DRL compilation succeeds):
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError:
