<div class=Section1>
<p class=MsoNormal>I have three questions, re: the following line of code in
Drools (LHS).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>sd : SmartDescription(description <b>matches</b>
"MAR(K|KE|KED)? ",
pFamilies.containsKey(SchemaConstants.CERAMIC_CHIP_CAPACITORS) ||
pFamilies.containsKey(SchemaConstants.CERAMIC_NETWORKS), description :
description, pFamilies : possibleFamilies);<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>To put it in plain English, I want to match against the
regex, but only if the rule can provide useful information (ie the two constant
family id keys are still present in the family maps). When I put in
SchemaConstants.familyKey, it tells me I’ve got an unexpected token. How
can I accomplish this?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Is there a way to store the regex in a local rule variable? Ie,
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>String pattern = "MAR(K|KE|KED)? ";<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Description <b>matches</b> pattern, …<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Finally, this is a rather long line, is there a way to split
apart the testing of the map condition from the match condition into a separate
part, to let it match the .containsKey on a separate line?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Thanks,<o:p></o:p></p>
