Hi
As a general advice, try to avoid using abstract data structures (lists,
maps, etc) as facts, since they have no semantics in the problem domain. If
you have students, insert each student in the working memory. If you have
student activities, either have an activities list "as a student attribute",
or create a domain object that relates students to their activity list.
If you do the above, rules will be so much simpler and more performant,
that you will not regret.
But, since you asked, I see no reason for you to not insert students
directly, instead of the list of students. Your rule would be like:
when
$std : Student( $id : id )
$map : Map( )
$act : Activity ($date : date, length > 180) from $map[$id]
then
end

Hi,
I need to put a map into the working memory and make some check on the
values
I have an object called Student with Id
And for every student there is a list of activity.
Each activity has date and the time for the activity
What I will be putting in the working memory looks as follows:
List<Student> studentList = getStudentList();
Map<Student, List<Activity>> studentActivityMap =
getStudentActivities(studentList);
List objects = new ArrayList();
objects.add(studentList);
objects.add(studentActivityMap);
ksession.execute(objects);
====================
Now i need to check for every student, if there is/are activity(ies) which
needs more than 2 hours. If yes, give an output information which mention,
which student and on which day the activity is longer than 2 hours
when
$studentList : List
$std : Student($id : id) from $studentList
$activityList : ****how to get the list of activity for the student with
this $id from the given map *****
$act : Activity ($date : date, length > 180) from $activityList
then
(print something out using $id from std and $date from act)
Would really appreciate any help and hints here
Regards
bb
