Hi, I'll appreciate any help in this issue
I'm going to explain my problem, using the next rules as example:
####################BEGIN RULE FILE (pricing.drl)##########################
#created on: 04/05/2009
package com.mycompany.pricing
import com.company.FeatureQuoteRequest;
import com.company.Account;
import com.company.EstimatedElectricUsage;
import com.company.AuxDecimal
global AuxDecimal auxDecimal1;
#first rule group to calculate the Capacity Factor
rule "Start capacity factor calculation"
salience 20
when
featureQuoteRequest: FeatureQuoteRequest(feature == 'CAPACITY_FACTOR',
priceAmount == null);
account: Account();
usageItem: EstimatedElectricUsage() from
account.getElectricUsageEstimation(1,6);
then
insert (usageItem);
drools.setFocus("monthly_capacity_factor");
end
rule "Get monthly Capacity factor"
agenda-group 'monthly_capacity_factor'
when
featureQuoteRequest: FeatureQuoteRequest(feature == 'CAPACITY_FACTOR',
priceAmount == null);
account: Account();
usage: EstimatedElectricUsage();
then
auxDecimal1.add(usage.getValue() * 2 + 1);
retract(usage);
end
rule "Get total Capacity factor"
salience 10
when
featureQuoteRequest: FeatureQuoteRequest(feature == 'CAPACITY_FACTOR',
priceAmount == null);
account: Account();
totalEstimatedElectricUsage: Double() from
accumulate(EstimatedElectricUsage (value: value) from
account.getElectricUsageEstimation(1,6), sum(value));
then
featureQuoteRequest.setPriceAmount(auxDecimal1.getValue()/totalEstimatedElectricUsage);
end
#second rule group to calculate the Transmision Factor
rule "Start transmision factor calculation"
salience 20
when
featureQuoteRequest: FeatureQuoteRequest(feature == 'TRANSMISION_FACTOR',
priceAmount == null);
account: Account();
usageItem: EstimatedElectricUsage() from
account.getElectricUsageEstimation(1,6);
then
insert (usageItem);
drools.setFocus("monthly_transmision_factor");
end
rule "Get monthly Transmision factor"
agenda-group 'monthly_transmision_factor'
when
featureQuoteRequest: FeatureQuoteRequest(feature == 'TRANSMISION_FACTOR',
priceAmount == null);
account: Account();
usage: EstimatedElectricUsage();
then
auxDecimal1.add(usage.getValue() * 2 + 1);
retract(usage);
end
rule "Get total Transmision factor"
salience 10
when
featureQuoteRequest: FeatureQuoteRequest(feature == 'TRANSMISION_FACTOR',
priceAmount == null);
account: Account();
totalEstimatedElectricUsage: Double() from
accumulate(EstimatedElectricUsage (value: value) from
account.getElectricUsageEstimation(1,6), sum(value));
then
featureQuoteRequest.setPriceAmount(auxDecimal1.getValue()/totalEstimatedElectricUsage);
end

####################END JAVA CLASS FILE ##########################
I'm using Drools 4.0.7
The problem is, that many activations are create (one for every
EstimatedElectricUsage) everytime I retract the first object from the
working memory (lines 45 and 53) You can see the activations created, and
immediately cancelled, in the file event.log attached to this post.
http://www.nabble.com/file/p23381763/event.log event.log (open this file in
the Audit View of Eclipse Plugin for a better read)
If I put the "lock-on-active true" for rule "Get total Capacity
factor" then
activations are not created when corresponding objects are retracted (line
45, 46) but It doesn't work for rule "Get total Transmision factor". See
event2.log file for detail.
http://www.nabble.com/file/p23381763/event2.log
event2.log
Adding "lock-on-active true" for rule "Get total Transmision factor"
doesn't
resolve the activations for lines 53 and 54.
When the objects are retracted none of the rules should get activate,
becaouse the rules depend on the existance of the objects retracted.
finally, sorry if my English is not so good, Ask me, If you have any
question to clarify mi problem.
This is my example project if you want to reproduce the case.
