Link after link...

My GUIbuilding googling turned into rule-based engines googling which gradually turned into studying one of them. Mostly it was provoked by beautiful design and the presence of «Tutorials and examples» section at http://www.drools.org.

Now my task is to write it all down in order to remember the new information and, besides, to be able to recollect this in case of need.

I suppose, it will be about four posts in one and a half screen :)

Subtotals can be sumed up just now:

1) Concentration on a task is amazing, the main thing is do not forget constatly repeat the mantra: «everithing is a fact, I can operate facts only». If to use such an approach, most inefficient solutions are fall away. And you can wink at memory overhead.

2) «Rete network + OOP» is equivalent to «a fish + a bicycle». Probably, I will not rush to assert that rete + OOP is useless, it's only advantage is easy integration with existing systems. But during development it's only prevent thinking. IMHO duck typing is a good compromise in this case.
