The thing is that after this code:
(deftemplate Person (declare (from-class Person)))
(bind ?f (assert (Person (name Henrique) (age 38
There's no way to transfer those property values to a Person object; i.e., if
you then said
(modify ?f (OBJECT (new Person)))
Then the Person's name
Got that, thanks a lot.

Thanks for the dog analogy...
But going back to practical uses, one aspect that I like when creating a
fact directly from a from-class template (i.e., a doghouse without a dog --
I can still make some reasoning over the doghouse) is that the Jess code to
do it is much more readable and compact,
The *real* way to add shadow facts is using the definstance function. It has
a number of options that aren't available with add. The add function was
added to Jess to support the simplified semantics of JSR-94 (the javax.rules
API) but the intent is that most Jess users will use definstance.
