Hi!You have to use the definstance command in order to create a (shadow) fact representing your bean. Here is an appropriate Java method that does this job:
/**
* Rete Engine
*/
private Rete rete = new Rete();...
/**
* definstance of object that supports <i>PropertyChangeListener</i>s
*/
public void definstance(String className, Object bean)
throws JessException
{
Funcall f = new Funcall("definstance", rete);
f.add(new Value(className, RU.ATOM));
f.add(new Value(bean));
f.execute(rete.getGlobalContext());
}
Greetings

Subject: JESS: A problem with the OBJECT slot (?)
I'm using 5.0 (_very_ nice job, Ernest) and I seem to be running into a
problem. I have a java bean -- B, and I defclass it:
(defclass C B dynamic). I then have a user function which creates a
fact, sets some slot values and asserts it:f = new Fact("C", engine)
f.setSlotValue(..)
f.setSlotValue(..)
engine.assert(f)So fas so good. In a rule set I acquire the fact ID for the asserted
fact. All the slots are there with all the right values except slot
OBJECT, which I thought should be a pointer back to the underlying
instance of B. However, for some reason it is the atom 'nill'
( I'm accesing it using (fact-slot-value (integer ?fid) OBJECT)).Am I doing something obviously wrong?
Tnx
Alanl
