[rules-users] simultaneous forEach

[Jonathan Woods]

I've just noticed this too - I presume you mean using the 'from'
keyword.

The iteration seems to take place over only the match conditions which
follow the 'from' line.  I tried a debug-printing eval() before and
after; when before 'from', it was evaluated only once; when after, it
was evaluated (at least) as many times as there were elements in the
collection.

This goes against my understanding of the Drools model, in which I
thought rule LHS effectively caused all matching objects to be put in
something like a rule-instance-specific working memory, and the
cross-product evaluated for the RHS... But clearly I'm missing something
too.

Subject: [rules-users] simultaneous forEach

  Hi,

I'm testing Drools Flow functionality and it seems that the foreach node
iterates over the collection one value at a time, the embedded flow is
executed sequentially for each value. I'm looking for some construct
that invokes each embedded flow simultaneously for each collection
value. Like a AND split/AND join of multiple instances.
Is this possible with forEach, am I missing some configuration? or any
other way to achieve it.
