WorkingMemory - JBoss RULES 3.0.6 API 英文版文档


org.drools
Interface WorkingMemory

All Superinterfaces:
java.io.Serializable
All Known Subinterfaces:
InternalWorkingMemoryActions
All Known Implementing Classes:
AbstractWorkingMemory, ReteooWorkingMemory, SynchronizedWorkingMemory

public interface WorkingMemory
extends java.io.Serializable

A knowledge session for a RuleBase. While this object can be serialised out, it cannot be serialised in. This is because the RuleBase reference is transient. Please see the RuleBase interface for serializing in WorkingMemories from an InputStream.
