Edson,

With this code it is firing. But it is firing 2 times(u also got same 2 time output). why is that? how we can avoid?

Thanks and Regss,

Basha

 

 

 

   Sorry, my mistake. "this" is a reserved word in java (duh!!), and so you need to use your own binding:

m : Message( $message1 : message )
mdup : Message($message2:message==$message1,eval(mdup != m) ) 

   You can't use mvel dialect, because in MVEL the operators "==" and "!=" will call the equals() method anyway.
   Other than that, it is working just fine for me:

rule "Find duplicates" 
        salience 10
    when
        $f1 : Message( $m1 : message )
        $f2 : Message( $m2 : message == $m1, eval( $f1 != $f2 ) )
    then
        System.out.println( "FIRED DUPLICATE:" ); 
        System.out.println( "      $f1 = "+$f1+" [ message="+$m1+" ]"  );
        System.out.println( "      $f2 = "+$f2+" [ message="+$m2+" ]"  );
end 

rule "Find differents"
    when
        $f1 : Message( $m1 : message )
        $f2 : Message( $m2 : message != $m1 )
    then
        System.out.println( "FIRED DIFFERENT:" );
        System.out.println( "      $f1 = "+$f1+" [ message="+$m1+" ]" );
        System.out.println( "      $f2 = "+$f2+" [ message="+$m2+" ]"  );
end

    The code to insert facts is:

            Message message1 = new Message();
            message1.setMessage(  "Hello World" );
            workingMemory.insert( message1 );
            Message message2 = new Message(); 
            message2.setMessage(  "Hello World" );
            workingMemory.insert( message2 );
            Message message3 = new Message();
            message3.setMessage(  "Hello Bob" ); 
            workingMemory.insert( message3 );
            workingMemory.fireAllRules();   

    And the result is:

FIRED DUPLICATE:
      $f1 = com.sample.DroolsTest$Message at 1b06041 [ message=Hello World ] 
      $f2 = com.sample.DroolsTest$Message at 1a001ff [ message=Hello World ]
FIRED DUPLICATE:
      $f1 = com.sample.DroolsTest$Message at 1a001ff [ message=Hello World ]
      $f2 = com.sample.DroolsTest$Message at 1b06041 [ message=Hello World ]
FIRED DIFFERENT:
      $f1 = com.sample.DroolsTest$Message at 1c6572b [ message=Hello Bob ]
      $f2 = com.sample.DroolsTest$Message at 1b06041 [ message=Hello World ]
FIRED DIFFERENT:
      $f1 = com.sample.DroolsTest$Message at 1b06041 [ message=Hello World ]
      $f2 = com.sample.DroolsTest$Message at 1c6572b [ message=Hello Bob ]
FIRED DIFFERENT:
      $f1 = com.sample.DroolsTest$Message at 1c6572b [ message=Hello Bob ] 
      $f2 = com.sample.DroolsTest$Message at 1a001ff [ message=Hello World ]
FIRED DIFFERENT:
      $f1 = com.sample.DroolsTest$Message at 1a001ff [ message=Hello World ]
      $f2 = com.sample.DroolsTest$Message at 1c6572b [ message=Hello Bob ]

2007/11/14, Sikkandar Nawabjan <Sikkandar.Nawabjan at ust-global.com>: 

	i just use this sort of rule
	
	rule "Hello World"
	
	dialect "mvel" 
	
	when
	
	m : Message( $message1 : message )
	
	mdup : Message($message2:message==$message1,eval(this!=m) )
	
	then
	
	System.out.println("Rule Fired1111"+m +"::"+mdup );
	
	System.out.println ("Rule Fired"+$message1 +"::"+$message2 );
	
	end
	
	
	
	if i put rule parameter dialect "MVEL"  the error "this should be used in static context" is gone. But now the rule is firing whatever may be the data 
	
	i assert 2 objects with message Hello and Hello11111.
	
	still the rule is firing(2 times).
	
	Thanks and regs,

	   Sorry, you lost me. What is the error message?
	   Can you send us a self contained test showing the problem you are having?
