apply rules on a file and add an object to the session

[stellina_rosa]

Hi!

I need to apply rules to a particular file. Let me explain: my application will launch an external program that creates some results, and these results are stored in a file (ex. result.txt). I would like to use a drools file to apply rules on this result.txt file... is there any way to do this?

For example, my result.txt file contains:

q1("Miller",38000,"New York")

q1("Koch",2000000,"Atlanta")

q1("Nguyen",35000,"New York")

and I want a rule like this: if the string contains New York, then print "hello New York" =====> this example is for explain you what i want:

a mechanism for manipulating the strings of a text file in a file drools.

Please help me! THANK YOU!!!

Here is a simple example:

You can create a rule task and use a drl file (or an Excel decision table http://community.jboss.org/people/bpmn2user/blog/2011/03/07/jbpm5--ruletask-example-using-an-excel-decision-table). In the drl file you can define the rule ' if the string contains New York, then print "hello New York" =====>'

Hi!

I have create a workItem that create an object for any string in the result file; in my example, it will create 3 object:

q1("Miller",38000,"New York")

q1("Koch",2000000,"Atlanta")

q1("Nguyen",35000,"New York")

I need to do this because Drools only works with object, and at the same time Drools take the object in the session; so now I need to add my objects to the session in the method executeWorkItem() of my workItem....

So far, I have only create the object... How can I add these to the session? I can't understand in what way I could  use the session created in the ProcessTest.java class, where I create the session and start the process...

Thank you very much!
