Dear Drools team,
I like much the approach of Drools Flow and would appreciate to learn more.
The documentation states the extended rule engine having knowledge of the
process model
and instance state derives the next process execution step. I am wondering,
whether the
overall flow is reactive, even the procedural constructs like sequence,
branching/joining
are implemented through firing rule actions ? For example, does Drools Flow
converts the
sequence of steps A -> B into sth. like "when A.passed then B.start()" ?
When the prevoius holds, does Drools Flow allows to create (desgin) and
execute declarative processes
omiting any explicit sequencing ? The steps/tasks were ordered partially by
data- or event-based
dependency conditions or even activated independently of each other.
Drools Flow/Expert provide a thight integration with Java (e.g. representing
facts as Java classes).
Are there future plans for supporting a higher-level processing with
XML/XPath/XQuery like in YAWL ?
Many thanks
Jaro
