[rules-dev] Refer to the 'Rule Name' within the Rule script

[Edson Tirelli]

   Arjun,

   Answering your first question, in the consequence of a rule, you have the
automatically-defined "drools"  variable. It implements the KnowledgeHelper
interface. Take a look at this interface as it can provide you a lot of
runtime information. To get the rule name:

drools.getRule().getName();

    Also, if you develops something that is generic and want to contribute
back to the community, it would be great. Maybe others can also help you
out.

    About your second question: we don't have anything out of the box yet.
Although, Mark has blogged about exposing rules as a web-service and we are
looking into implementing something like that in the drools-brms.

    Again, contributions welcome.

    Regards,
       Edson
