Hmmm..good idea.
Now if I can get functions to work. :-) Thanks, Chris _____ From: rules-users-boun...@lists.jboss.org [mailto:rules-users-boun...@lists.jboss.org] On Behalf Of Wolfgang Laun Sent: Wednesday, October 14, 2009 8:15 AM To: Rules Users List Subject: Re: [rules-users] setting globals in rule file You could let the "user" write some functions such as function String parFoo(){ return "foo42"; } and evaluate them in a rule firing with high priority on eval(true). -W 2009/10/14 Chris Richmond <crichm...@referentia.com> Hmm. Well..I have this rule file and it seems like a darn convenient place to set some configuration settings so the user could change them in the plain text file. Otherwise I have to implement another configuration settgin system then feed that to th setGlobal.

What do you want to achieve? -W 2009/10/14 Chris Richmond <crichm...@referentia.com> Shouldn't it be possible to set a global variable value within the rule file itself at the top. Something like? global String deviceName = "myDevice"; I thought you could do that, but consistently get an error saying illegal character '=' expected "(" Or something along those lines. This is possible and that syntax should work, shouldn't it?
