[rules-users] Problem using RuleAgent

I'm having a problem with the RuleAgent... I'm using a RuleAgent to load rules and create a rulebase, but i'm finding that in the time it takes to load all 30 or so files that I'm using for my rules, my main thread starts running strings against the rules before all of the rules have been initially loaded. Is there an easy way to block until all rule-loading operations are completed? This would be important for rule changes too, though not as much so as on the initial load. I'm thinking a listener sounds like the right way to go, but I'm not very familiar with multi-threaded programming and so I don't really know how to go about implementing that. Would somebody mind giving me a hand?
