[rules-users] Identify Rule on Attributes

I concur everybody's statements fully.

The purpose of a rules engine is to remove the need for the application
developer to code algorithms to determine which of a set of rules should
execute given a set of facts\properties\objects. Drools implements the
RETE algorithm. Writing your own code to determine which rule should be
executed would be like writing your own video driver so you can display
an image. 

Of course "we" all assume you plan on using Drools as a rule engine; a
black box to drive the execution of consequences based upon rule
definitions and domain objects. As you state in your last post below;
your "point is that [you] want to use rule engine in [your] application
at it's fullest". Without a clearer description of your use-case it
might be impossible for anybody to give an answer that helps with your
particular issue.

These forums are an excellent place to find solutions. Everybody has
always been extremely helpful to me.

I hope you are not discouraged by the responses received to date and am
sure everybody is genuinely trying to help.

With kind regards,

Mike

Hi Vikrant,
