Sigh, I figured something out five minutes after I sent the message...
I created a class like this:
public class ConstantStash {
private Map<Object, Integer> things = new HashMap<Object, Integer>();
public Integer set(Object key, int value) {
things.put(key, value);
return value;
}
public Integer get(Object key) {
return things.get(key);
}
}
And used it like this:
global ConstantStash stash;
rule "foo"
when
SomeObject( aField > (stash.set("a rule", 7)) )
then
takeSomeAction(stash.get("a rule"))
end
It's still clunky, but at least it looks like it will work.
