Hi,

I have finally gained a tiny bit of control (and maybe even some competency) in 
using the DROOLs language operators 'no-loop' and 'lock-on-active' as a basis 
for controlling rule set firing behavior in response to Fact mutation events 
(during consequence processing).

I now want to (competently!) use DROOLs language tactics that give me ever 
finer grained control over managing rule set firing behavior on Fact mutation 
events.  Specifically, I want to be able to implement some form of 'Guarded 
entry/block' controls.

E.g. let's say I have a Fact  (InsertedFactPOJO) that I insert into the KS and 
want to have its 'fireAllRules()'  AgendaSet(s) renedered in exact incremental 
ordinal stages and in perfect isolation.  To do this, I am testing the 
inclusion of a 'countdownLatch' Semaphore reference as a Fact member 
(initialized to N=`total rule count` value).  I then use this to 'Guard' 
individual rule entry, by generating an explicit predicate participant

(InsertedFactPOJO(countdownLatch             == i) )

@ each ith Rule producedby my template.

Is this approach a valid/sound/complete way to implement 'Guarded entry/block' 
controls in DROOLs?  Is there a better way?

As always, my sincerest gratitude to this community for its generosity (and its 
genius).

Ben
