[rules-users] fireUntilHalt and timing of rule activations

Hi All, In my app, I have a separate thread calling fireUntilHalt() continuously.  I have quite a few rules, and I am using salience extensively to control the order in which rules are executed.  What I have seen (by adding an event listener) is that as a new fact is inserted, various rules are activated.  Often, the fireUntilHalt will start executing fireNextItem in DefaultAgenda before all of the activations are complete.  So if the rule with the highest salience value hasn't been activated at this point, then the first rule to be fired isn't the correct one. This can be worked around by waiting for insert to return and then calling fireAllRules().  But it seems like the session should block fireUntilHalt from trying to execute activated rules until all activations are complete.  Or am I missing something here? thanks, Norman
