JESS: newbie: Passing values from Java to Jess back to Java

[Ashish Majmundar]

Hi,

I am having difficulty passing values from Java to
Jess and then back to Java.  I have the following
code. Could someone tell me what I'm doing wrong??
===================================================
testJess.java
===================================================
import java.io.*;
import java.awt.*;
import jess.*;
import java.util.*;

public class testJess
{
  public static void main(String[] argv)
  {
    try
      {

        Rete rete = new Rete();
        Context c = rete.getGlobalContext();
        rete.executeCommand("(reset)");
        rete.addUserpackage(new PredFunctions());
        rete.addUserpackage(new MiscFunctions());
        rete.reset();

        // Read in the rules
        rete.executeCommand("(batch test.clp)");
        System.out.println("Initial state = " +
rete.fetch("currentState"));
        //rete.store("currentState", new Value(2,
RU.INTEGER));

        rete.executeCommand("(assert
(run-until-halt))");

        rete.executeCommand("(assert (handle-up))");
        System.out.println("Listing facts...");
        for (Enumeration e = rete.listFacts();
e.hasMoreElements();) {
                Object t = e.nextElement();
                System.out.println(t.toString());
        }

        System.out.println("Current State after assert
on handle-up = " + rete.fetch("RESULT"));
        rete.executeCommand("(assert (stop-exec))");

      }
    catch (JessException re)
      {
        re.printStackTrace();
      }

  }
}
===================================================
test.clp
===================================================
(set-reset-globals nil)
(store currentState "idle")

(defrule handle-up-rule
(handle-up)
=>
(store RESULT "handle-up")
)

(defrule end-exec
(stop-exec)
=>
(halt)
)
===================================================
output
===================================================
Initial state = "idle"
Listing facts...
(initial-fact)
(run-until-halt)
(handle-up)
Current State after assert on handle-up = null
===================================================

My question is: why doesn't the 'Current State after
assert on handle-up' say 'handle-up'?

Thanks in advance.
