Folks,

 

Using 4.0.1. Trying to do use rule flow to manage the execution of rules. As I understood in Split node with type XOR I can set conditions for each destination that are executed against facts in working memory.

 

Let's consider I have a rule that executes every time it finds Integer object in memory and increments it.

 

rule "Increment"

      ruleflow-group "Up"

      when

            $i : Integer(intValue < 10)

      then

            System.out.println("INTEGER : " + $i);

            retract($i);

            insert(new Integer($i.intValue() + 1));

end

 

Now, I have the following rule flow in place:

 

 

 

The Split to Up arrow has constraint : Integer(intValue < 5)

 

And initially I am inserting this fact : insert (new Integer(0))

 

Now my understanding is that It should execute rule “Increment”  5 times…. But instead it does it 10 times…

 

Is that a normal behavior? Why cannot Split understand that only when there is an Integer(intValue < 5) only then execute rule with ruleflow-group "Up"

 

Thanks…
