Hello group,

Thank you very much Robert and Wolfgang for helping me even if it is the
week end. I really appreciate this.

After some tries in a test program with the rule that you suggested, I
modified my real program to integrate the new rule. As you can see this rule
is similar to Wolfgang's last:

(defrule MAIN::Station-3-Rule
    (MAIN::Station
        (id 3)
        (OBJECT ?station))
    (MAIN::EntitiesQueue
        (downStreamRessourceId 3)
        (enqueuePriority ?priority1)
        (enqueueTimeStamp ?timeStamp1)
        (OBJECT ?upstreamQueue))
    (not (MAIN::EntitiesQueue
            (downStreamRessourceId 3)
            (enqueuePriority ?priority2&:(< ?priority1 ?priority2))))
    (not (MAIN::EntitiesQueue
            (downStreamRessourceId 3)
            (enqueueTimeStamp ?timeStamp2&:(> ?timeStamp1 ?timeStamp2))))
    =>
    (printout t "Station-3-Rule has been activated !" crlf)
    )

Unfortunately it is never activated and I can't figure out why. If I look
the working memory it should.

Attached to this post is the facts list (Facts.txt). Note that I inserted
">>  " before the relevant facts, i.e. Station (id 3) (a single relevant
fact) and EntitiesQueue (downStreamStationId 3) (3 relevant facts).

I also attached the result of (matches MAIN::Station-3-Rule) function call
(Matches.txt).

Sorry for giving a lot of details. I rather like to give smallest example
but I am not able to reproduce the problem.

Any help or advice that could help me to debug this rule would be
appreciate.

Regards,

Nicolas.
