Title: more effecient jess debuging

Question:  Will jdb or some of the other shareware (freeware) debugging tools work with Jess.  I haven’t tried them yet but I know that there are some that will work with other rulebased systems out there.  Just wondered if anyone else had tried any of these.     SDG jco   James C.

So far watch-all has not been able to help me find the problems I am tracking down. Can anyone suggest other debug methods for jess rulesets? watch-all will tell me what rules fire, but more importantly I am looking for why a rule didnt fire. I examinted the facts that a particular rule was matching against and went through all the guards and they look like they should work but the rule doesn't seem to be firing. Adding (printout t 'message' crlf) after each rule also didnt yeild any results (atleast it didnt result in any messages in the output file I am redirecting 't' to). Are there any other methods you have used to debug a rule?
