Edson,
Thanks for your replies they have really helped.
1) I am still not sure about creating a new operator, since the '>='
operator already exists it just does not cater for strings, which I want to
add. So would creating a new operator cause the existing one to be overrriden
when added to the registry?
2) Having looked at the examples and tests you emailed, I am still unsure
how to actually wire in the changes, say for example I have replaced the
existing '>=' evaluator or created a new evaluator so that '>=' now handles
strings. When writing rules will the engine pick this up?.. or do I need to
create a new jar by building?.. or do I need to update a configuration file?...
im just not sure...
3) Wouldn't the following also add the evaluator definition by replacing
the existing one..
PackageBuilderConfiguration pkgb = new
PackageBuilderConfiguration();
pkgb.getEvaluatorRegistry().addEvaluatorDefinition(new
ComparableEvaluatorsDefinition());
PackageBuilder builder = new PackageBuilder(pkgb);
builder.addPackageFromDrl(source);
Package pkg = builder.getPackage();
// Add the package to a rulebase (deploy the rule package).
rules = RuleBaseFactory.newRuleBase();
rules.addPackage(pkg);
Thanks for your help...

Subject: Re: [rules-users] Getting hold of the Evaluator Registry
I am working in one example of drools features where I implement a custom
evaluator here:
http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/labs/labs/jbossrules/contrib/lotrc/src/main/java/org/drools/examples/lotrc/evaluators/IsAdjacentToEvaluatorDefinition.java
I use the configuration file instead of API in the example:
http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/labs/labs/jbossrules/contrib/lotrc/src/main/resources/META-INF/drools.packagebuilder.conf

Asif,
My recommendation is create a new operator for you instead of overriding
existing ones. Although if you really want to replace the existing ones,
setting the property or calling the API to register a new operator will
override the default.
See:
http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/labs/labs/jbossrules/trunk/drools-compiler/src/test/java/org/drools/builder/KnowledgeBuilderConfigurationTest.java
Test method:
testEvaluatorConfiguration()

Hi,
What I need to do is modify one of the evaluator classes specifically '<=', so
that it can handle strings. Now I know I need to create a class similar to
ComparableEvaluatorDefinition. But what I want to do is replace the existing
one in the evaluator registry with my implementation which will include the
additional String capability.

>registry?
Cheers
I
