Felipe,
I think you were very close to doing it right. What about this:
rule "remove used vacation days"
no-loop
when
vr: VacationRequestVO($days: availableDays , $iniDate: initDate )
$u: UserVO( $vacReqList: vacationRequestList )
Number ($usedDays : intValue > 1) from accumulate ( VacationRequestVO(
isAproved == true, endDate < $iniDate, $uDays: usedDays)
from $vacReqList, sum($uDays))
then
vr.setAvailableDays($days - $usedDays);
end
So, basically, what we are trying to do from a language perspective is
to allow users to optionally provide a source for each pattern. So, if you
simply write a pattern without a source, it comes from the working memory:
MyClass( ... )
If you want him to come from another source, you use the "from" CE. As
you did, it is possible to nest the "from CE" inside the "accumulate CE".
Number(...) from accumulate( VacationRequestVO(...) from $vacRequeList ... )
The other change you needed in your rule is that as you are adding up
quantities, you want to use the "sum" function instead of "count" function
that is used to count occurrences.
Try out and let us know... this is a nice rule to show language
expressiveness.
