yeah, that is what we are doing to the complicated statements. We may end
up doing this for the prediction part.

[rules-users] Scheduling Application and Optaplanner

2013-07-31 Thread marchias
Just started researching OptaPlanner. Loaded examples in Eclipse and got them
running. I'm interested in extending the Nurse rostering example to work
with a scheduling application I have written. I have some interesting
constraints though that wanted to reach out to the community with to make
sure they can be accomodated. My scheduling app has a hierachical entity
setup with Organizations and child locations. An employee can be configured
to work at multiple locations and are also assigned a "Primary" location
which means they should be picked up on shifts at that location before an
employee that does not have that location as primary. Also I have a priority
group or ranking (1-10) which would be considered in sorting employees as
well. Shifts are location, date/time and skill specific with a configured
amount of resources needed.

Shift Examples

Location 1 = 2 nurses, (Monday Wednesay Friday), 7AM - 11PM
Location 1 = 1 nurse, (Sunday,Tuesday,Thursday,Saturday), 7AM - 11PM

Constraints for an employee

Max Hours/Week: 0.00
Min Hours/Week: 0.00
Max Hours/Day:  0.00
Min Hours/Day:  0.00
Max Days/Week:  0.00
Max Consecutive Days:   0.00
Max Shifts/Day: 0.00
Max Shifts/Month:   2.00
Max Weekend Shifts/Month0.00
Max Consecutive Shifts of Duration  0.00 consecutive 0.00 hr shifts

Re: [rules-users] decision and prediction based on the same set of rules

2013-07-31 Thread Stephen Masters
btw - If you ever find the statements being written by the business team to be 
a bit weird, and overly technical, just create a simple DSL phrase to hide what 
is actually happening.

This way, you can have a statement "Reject the request", which might in reality 
perform multiple actions, such as inserting and modifying facts.

I agree with your points, Steve.

I know this solution will require certain "statements" on the RHS which I
am trying to avoid due to the fact that the "business team" is authorizing
the rules. But I will keep that as an option.

Thanks

The bug was caused by one of the InputStreams that was not closed

I could not reproduce the issue..
could you submit a self-contained, obfuscated test case (DRL + classes)?
I suspect you are leaving out some detail which is the real cause of the
error
Thanks

p.s. I used this mock class:

package vrpn;

public class TrackerRemote {

public TrackerUpdate getUpdate() {

return new TrackerUpdate();

}

public class TrackerUpdate {

}

}


and your rule, removing the "message" from the RHS

 Thank you Steve, you are right. It was a bug in the 5.5.0.Final.
 After I switched to 5.4.0.Final it started to work.

 I was suspecting that the newer version is the one with the most bug
 fixes.
 Apparently I was wrong.
 Which version of Drools would you recommend?

Re: [rules-users] No errors thrown from KnowledgeAgent

2013-07-31 Thread Davide Sottara
The KA logs to a SystemEventListener, and supports a dedicated event
listener for
additions/updates/etc...

You can do:

kagent.setSystemEventListener( new PrintStreamSystemEventListener() );
kagent.addEventListener( new DebugKnowledgeAgentEventListener(  ) );

5.6 already solves the NPE with this particular ruleset.
It is ready to be released, one last issue pending.
It will likely be the last of the 5.x series.. anyone willing to give it
a try
is more than welcome
