Open Source Rule Engines in Java

Manageability - Open Source Rule Engines Written In Java

I don't recall if someone has put together a list of open source Rule Engines that are written in Java. Here's the list I've accumulated so far...

Lists and arrays in Dart

(This is Part 3 in a series about Dart. Check out Part 2, Function in Dart .) Warning : We expect the Dart libraries to undergo potentially sweeping changes before Dart goes to alpha. This document is relevant as of 2011-12-22. Intro Dart is a "batteries included" effort to help app developers build modern web apps. An important "battery" is the bundled core Dart libraries, providing common and rich functionality. Dart is building a solution for large, complex web apps, and providing well tested, integrated, and common libraries is key to helping a web app developer be more productive out of the box. The Collection libraries are a crucial set of APIs that Dart developers get for free. Much more than simple arrays and maps, the Collection library includes standard ways to filter, iterate, inspect, compose, and sort your data. This post specifically looks at List<E> , Dart's ordered, indexable collection of objects. Aside: The Dart project is lucky

Null-aware operators in Dart

Image
Three new language features just landed in the latest dev channel build of the Dart ! Collectively known as null-aware operators , these new features will help you reduce the code required to work with potentially null objects. I'm excited for these new abilities, because typing less is always a good thing. Read on to learn more, and be sure to try these new features on Dart Pad . ?? Use ?? when you want to evaluate and return an expression IFF another expression resolves to null. exp ?? otherExp is similar to ((x) => x == null ? otherExp : x)(exp) ??= Use ??= when you want to assign a value to an object IFF that object is null. Otherwise, return the object. obj ??= value is similar to ((x) => x == null ? obj = value : x)(obj) ?. Use ?. when you want to call a method/getter on an object IFF that object is not null (otherwise, return null). obj?.method() is similar to ((x) => x == null ? null : x.method())(obj) Yo

Booleans in Dart

(This is part 11 in an ongoing series about Dart. Read part 10, Numbers in Dart .) Intro This post will cover what is true, and false, in Dart. If you are coming from JavaScript, hopefully this short explanation about booleans in Dart will come as welcome relief. Dart has a formal boolean type, named bool . There are only two objects of type bool: true and false . Examples: bool registered = false; var verified    = true; True The only value that is true is the boolean value true. Unlike JavaScript, other values such as 1 or non-null object are not treated as true. False In a boolean context, everything that is not true is converted to false. JavaScript has six other falsey values such as empty string, zero, null object, undefined, or NaN. In Dart, if an object is not the boolean value true, it is evaluated as false. Boolean conversion What happens when you write the following code? var name = 'Bob'; if (name) {   print("you have a name!");
