Okay...
It should now be possible to write rules with Java semantics. We still don't have a convenient rules-file interface, but using the API, you can create several types of Java FactExtractors. There's a Darn Simple One, where you get an object, cast it, and do whatever you want to with it. There's an introspecting JavaBeanFactExtractor, that uses the jakarta-commons BeanUtils package. Given an object, follow any arbitrary JavaBean property chain to extract some info. It should now be possible for You to write your own file format that you read and construct JavaBean property-based rules, if you like. You'll have to figure out whatever you want to do with the actions. I'm still working on the full Java parser semantics, which will then provide a complete Java language based file format for conditions and actions. Probably not today, though. -bob _______________________________________________ drools-interest mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/drools-interest
