    Drools flow Using Timer node

    pete_p

      Hi,

       

      I am experimenting with Drools flow and need some help with the "Timer" node.

      I am using the Timer node basically to introduce a delay.

       

      The simple flow I have is :-

       

      Start ->

         Print "Before Timer" (Action Node) -> 

            Configure Timer node ( name = "Name", TimerDelay = "20000", Timer Period = "0" ) ->

               Print "After Timer" (Action Node) ->

                  End

       

       

      Below is the snippet of code to start the process.

       

          KnowledgeBase kbase = readKnowledgeBase();

       

          StatefulKnowledgeSession ksession = kbase.newStatefulKnowledgeSession();

                 

          ksession.startProcess("com.sample.ruleflow");

       

          ksession.fireAllRules()

       

      The output is "

          Before Timer"

       

      but NO "After Timer".

      The process is not getting past the timer node.

       

      As suggestion or example as why the process is not getting past the Timer node ?

       

      Many Thanks for your help.

       

      Pete
