[rules-users] matches operator

[Ashwini Joshi]

Hi,

 

 

Has anyone used the "matches" operator? 

In our application we need to support startWith, endsWith operators for
string variable. I am thinking of using matches operator. But the 'matches'
operator is not working. I am trying the following code

 

rule "Hello World"

      when

            m : Message(message matches "Hello*")

      then

            System.out.println( "Hello World"); 

end

 

 

 

And the value set in the message is "Hello World". But it is not going into
the then clause.

 

If anyone has already used matches operator I would like to know how we can
use it for startswith, endsWith. How do we specify the regular expression?
Can we use "*"

 

 

Thanks,

Ashwini
