I'm having some issues with the interaction between Flow, ruleflow-groups and AgendaFilters. I've tried it with 5.1.1, 5.2.0 using .rf files and 5.2.0 using .bpmn files, all with the same results, so I'm sure I'm just misunderstanding something.
I have a flow that looks like this: http://drools.46999.n3.nabble.com/file/n3200994/fraud_analysis_flow.jpg Rules 011 and 051 are in ruleflow-group customerAnalysis and rule 018 is in ruleflow-group customerActivityFilterAndLookup. I added some debugging via event listeners and if I don't use an agenda filter, I see the following output: Executing test Rule018TestCase001 Rules engine initialized Invoking rules for rule name Rule 018 - Good AVS Buyer Created activation for [Rule 018 - Good AVS Buyer] Created activation for [Rule 011 - Bad Zip 9 Address] Created activation for [Rule 051 - Suspicious Buyer Email] Triggered node [Order Analysis] Triggered node [Start Fraud Analysis Flow] Triggered node [Customer Analysis] About to fire [Rule 051 - Suspicious Buyer Email] ====> Rule 051 fired for order: 000000022 About to fire [Rule 011 - Bad Zip 9 Address] ====> Rule 011 fired for order: 000000022 Triggered node [Customer Activity Filter And Lookup] About to fire [Rule 018 - Good AVS Buyer] Created activation for [Rule 051 - Suspicious Buyer Email] Created activation for [Rule 011 - Bad Zip 9 Address] ====> Rule 018 fired for order: 210105 Triggered node [Customer Activity Analysis] Triggered node [Suspect Reason Code Review] Triggered node [End Fraud Analysis Flow] Rules executed successfully The results are roughly what I'd expect, but I have some questions: - Why do the activations get created for these 3 rules before any flows have started? - Why does the [Order Analysis] node get triggered before the [Start Fraud Analysis Flow] node? - Why are activations created again for 011 and 051 just prior to 018 firing? If I introduce an AgendaFilter that only allows a rule with a specific name to fire, things get stranger to me. If I only allow rule 018, I get the following output: Executing test Rule018TestCase001 Invoking rules for rule name Rule 018 - Good AVS Buyer Created activation for [Rule 018 - Good AVS Buyer] Created activation for [Rule 011 - Bad Zip 9 Address] Created activation for [Rule 051 - Suspicious Buyer Email] Triggered node [Order Analysis] Triggered node [Start Fraud Analysis Flow] Triggered node [Customer Analysis] Rejecting firing of [Rule 051 - Suspicious Buyer Email] because name doesn't match. Cancelled activation for [Rule 051 - Suspicious Buyer Email] because FILTER Rejecting firing of [Rule 011 - Bad Zip 9 Address] because name doesn't match. Cancelled activation for [Rule 011 - Bad Zip 9 Address] because FILTER Rules executed successfully Ruleflow customerActivityFilterAndLookup doesn't even get triggered, nor do any nodes after that. Why not? -- View this message in context: http://drools.46999.n3.nabble.com/Flow-isn-t-behaving-as-I-d-expect-tp3200994p3200994.html Sent from the Drools: User forum mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ rules-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/rules-users
