Hi all, I am using a StatelessKnowledgeSession and therefore call the execute method to invoke the rules engine. Having carried out a basic test, it would appear that calling execute on an arbitrarily complex object does not insert child objects, rather rules will only fire if they are based on the parent.
e.g. let's say you have a class called 'Father', which holds a collection of 'Child' objects. By calling session.execute(fatherObject) I need rules to fire that use the Child pattern without having to loop through 'insert'ing all the child elements manually. Has anyone come across a way around this? The only thing I managed to find was the use of a Batch Executor but you have to set that up before calling execute and therefore it's still effectively a manual process. If only Drools used java annotations, it would be ideal to specify behaviour similar to cascade with JPA. Any help or pointers much appreciated!
