[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBRULES-500) Special connective "or" constraint

    [ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBRULES-500?page=comments#action_12359105 ] 

Mark Proctor commented on JBRULES-500:
--------------------------------------

MultiRestrictionCondition allows for multiple restrictions on the same field, this needs to be extended further to allow across fields. It's basically building a mini AST evaluator that can be embeded in a node for evaluation.

> Would be nice to have some construct like
> Person(address == null or age < 30)
> which would kind of short circuit (ideally). Could be done as a special thing with alpha nodes, or another type of join node, or something else. 
> This is a common problem to have for users.
