• to talk to hibernate using the following configuration file:

• Well, connecting to the db with jdbc instead of running through Hibernate got things up to speed quite quickly. I am running arbitrary queries against the databases (including information_schema, which Hibernate chokes on). The results are wrapped in objects that rules can be run against.
•  Handle what happens when a null is returned by WrappedMap.getObjectByName().
• Determine primitive type and handle accordingly
• Looks like my ability to charge the CSIP contract ran out on the 9th. Need to figure out what to do with the 12 hours I charged since then. Jim is working on it. Ok. Charge half of today and all of yesterday and stop.

12:30 – 4:30 FP

• Worked on paper, then lost the ability to scroll past page one. Going to try this at home…

7:00 – 9:30 FP

• Finished incorporating paper changes and sent back to Dr. Kuber.

8:00 – 4:00 CSIP

• Working on building a Drools test case structured around wrapped Maps.
• Built the wrapped objects and Maps, and have the sandbox created
• And here’s how you do it. Probably not as efficient as it could be, but pretty general case.

  #created on: Apr 11, 2012
  package com.sample
  
  #list any import classes here.
  import com.sample.WrappedObject;
  import com.sample.WrappedMap;
  
  #declare any global variables here
  
  dialect "java"
  
  rule "rule Floats less than six"
  
      when
  
          WrappedMap($wo:getObjectByName("myFloat")) // condition
          eval($wo.NumericLessThan(6))
      then
          System.out.println("n--------------------------------n"+$wo.toString());
  
  end

• Need to add some methods for handling String compares and for other types of objects
• Working on getting Hibernate to talk to information_schema in mySql. I’m trying to use the eclipse tools, and I get this error:
• 
• Stopping for the day. Will talk to Dong about this tomorrow.

8:00 – 4:30 CSIP

• Now that I have my Hibernate Eclipse plugins working, back to chapter 9.
• Well, the plugins work fine, but when I tried to add an element to a query, the build broke and I was unable to get it to work again, even after restoring to the earliest version. Went on to chapter 12, but the DB appears to broken there too.
• According to Dong, this is because the HSQL instance is not persisted in the test, so all the data drops out. Switching the dialect to MySQL, which runs as a service on my box fixed all problems but one – an exception that said the DB couldn’t be reached. Which was odd, because it was accessed and the tables were created and populated. Go figure.
• Talked to Mike about his experience with dynamic object creation using Hibernate. It looks pretty straightforward, as long as you have a ‘generic’ object that is wrapped around Map(s) (Collections?) of some kind. Now I need to see if I can build a Drools engine that will reason over elements in a collection contained in an object.
