JESS: Jess and concurrency

[Matthew Hutchinson]

G'day all,

Has anyone had experience with using Jess in a concurrent situation? I have the one Rete object that is being accessed by various objects' methods. Each of these objects will be doing the usual things such as reading and writing facts, forming rules, reading and writing to variables etc. I am a bit concerned becasue some of my deffunctions rely on global variables.

Are there any particular design tips or techniques I should know about? Does Java synchronization play a part?


Cheers,
Matt
