The issue I have been struggling with is ordering rule evaluation ... which I realize violates one of the theoretical underpinnings of a rules system. I receive all String data. I wanted to test if the data was well formed (via regular expressions) prior to testing the semantic values stored in the data (e.g. numbers, etc).
However, I woke up this morning, smacking my forehead, wondering why I didn't think of this earlier. Is there any reason I shouldn't run the rules engine twice - once with a knowledge base containing the regular expressions, and then (if it passes) run it through a different knowledge base with the semantic evaluations? -- View this message in context: http://drools.46999.n3.nabble.com/Is-this-an-appropriate-approach-tp3567852p3567852.html Sent from the Drools: User forum mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ rules-users mailing list rules-users@lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/rules-users
