Hi Esteban,

To start up the notifier and scanner service I modified the Drools-Server 
ResourceChangeScannerBeanFactory as documented in this post:

http://drools.46999.n3.nabble.com/drools-server-resource-change-scanner-notifier-td2649325.html

I'm just wondering whether this is the right approach or if I should consider a 
Servlet as you have suggested. Did you have a particular reason for this 
approach?

BTW another caveat is that Declared Facts will not rebuild correctly, they just 
seem to get lost although other rules not dependent on any declared facts will 
fire normally. Using POJO's is fine. Using new-instance =true will throw an 
error when a merge of the rules is attempted. I think this is a know issue with 
the rule agent.

Hi.
You can configure a Knowledge Agent in Drools-Server using spring. You have to 
declare it in knowledge-services.xml config file. You need to do something like:

<drools:kagent id="kagent1" kbase="kbase1" new-instance="false">
            <drools:resources>
               <drools:resource  type="DRL" 
source="file:/some/path/to/apache-tomcat-7.0.6/webapps/drools-server/WEB-INF/classes/test.drl"/>
            <drools:resource  type="PKG" 
source="http://somehost:8080/droolg-guvnor/.../LATEST"/>
         </drools:resources>
</drools:kagent>

For configure the scan interval, you can use:

<drools:resource-change-scanner id="s1" interval="5" />

There are, though, some caveats:

 *   If you are deploying drools-server in tomcat, then you can't use classpath 
resources in the kagent. I have reported this problem today.
 *   drools-server doesn't start ResourceChangeNotifierService nor 
ResourceChangeScannerService automatically. You need to hack some way to invoke 
ResourceFactory.getResourceChangeNotifierService().start(); and 
ResourceFactory.getResourceChangeScannerService().start();. I was thinking in a 
Servlet that calls these methods in its init() method.

Hello everybody:

I am taking a look at Drools Integration documentation to understand how Drools 
server works and how can be used, and have a doubt concerning, let's say... 
'KnowledgeAgent capabilities'. Does Drools server support on the fly rule 
updating as when using KnowledgeAgent to create KnowledgeBase objects? If it 
does, where can be configured 'KnowledgeAgent related' properties such as 
newInstance or resource scanner interval?

Thank you in advance for your time.

Kind regards,

Manuel Ortiz.
