What is this lingo that you guys are using, the when/then etc.? Is this
supported by Drools? Everyone just pushed back on me saying they're not going
to support the ELSE construct and here you are talking about a WHEN? I'm
confused. Please explain to a novice :)
Thank you.

Subject: Re: [drools-user] Using While in drools
I'm a neophyte at this as well, but I think I'd assert all the elements of
the list into WM.
Then the rule would just be:
rule
when
Element()
then
doSomething();
end
Or, if you need to only trigger something when the item is added to the list,
assert the list as a fact:
rule
when
$e : Element()
ActionableElements(elements contains $e)
then
doSomething();
end
