I agree with SQL. If you also want to catch null you could do<br><br>Foo(field > 3 | == null)<br><br>cheers<br>Steve<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 3/15/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">Michael Neale</b> <<a href="mailto:michael.neale@gmail.com">

http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBRULES-627</a><br><br>OK, this much is clear: <br><br>Foo(field == null) can be true if field is null.<br><br>but, what about Foo(field > 3), and field is null? should that be false? what about Foo(field != 3) - should that be true?
<br><br>in SQL, null will always result in a false condition, unless you explicitly use null.<br><br>Thoughts? <br><span class="sg"><br>Michael.<br>
