[rules-users] Possibly stupid question... but I have to ask

[Joe White]

Why would you need to do that? This flow is logically the same.

rule "my rule"
	when
	   ...
	then

	    //Java code to modify fact goes here
	    insert( fact );
end

I meant to insert a fact and immediatly modify it, in the same rule
consequence.
I know you can insert OR modify in a consequence.
I also know that when you modify a fact you actually retract the old one
and
insert a new one with the respective properties set.

So, my question was, can you do something like this ? 
rule "my rule"
	when
	   ...
	then
	    insert( fact );
            modify (fact );
end

Where fact is the same?

And if it's possible, can you give me a simple example?
