I need to execute a method on "when" section of a DSLR file and I´m not sure if it´s possible. Example:
rule "WNPRules_10"
when
$reminder:Reminder(source == "HMI")
$user:User(isInAgeRange("30-100")==true)
Reminder(clickPercentual >= 10)
User(haveAtLeastOptIns("1,2,3,4") == true)
then
$reminder.setPriority(1);update($reminder);
end
(note: isInAgeRange() and haveAtLeastOptIns() are methods of User)
I tried with eval() and no errors appeared, but it didn´t execute. Like this:
rule "WNPRules_10"
when
$reminder:Reminder(source == "HMI")
$user:User(eval($user.isInAgeRange("30-100")==true))
Reminder(clickPercentual >= 10)
User(eval($user.haveAtLeastOptIns("1,2,3,4") == true))
then
$reminder.setPriority(1);update($reminder);
end
How can I resolve this problem?
Your second attempt looks fairly confused - also - do you have so User patterns - do you want them to refer to the same instance of user? or can they be separate instances (or must they be separate?) - that will change things a bit in some cases depending on your intent.
In terms of the simplest rewrite I can think of:
rule "WNPRules_10"
when
$reminder:Reminder(source == "HMI")
$user:User()
eval($user.isInAgeRange("30-100") && $user.haveAtLeastOptIns("1,2,3,4"))
Reminder(clickPercentual >= 10)
then
$reminder.setPriority(1);update($reminder);
end
Note the use of the eval() top level element - it also uses only one user pattern - and then applies the constraints to it. (In a future version inline evals will work without having to write eval !).
