Hi

Thanks for the reply.

I have tried to understand IterativeCondition, but I have not yet fully 
understood. How can it apply to my case ?

If I have more (than one) variables to set (and read) in pattern, is that 
possible by IterativeCondition ?

Are there exist more examples how to use it ? or documentation ?

Or should I use some other method than CEP, because my case is more batch 
processing than stream processing ?

Best, Esa

Hi Esa,
You cannot just simply assign value to some variable and read it in another 
pattern.
It is possible though to access event accepted in one pattern in next ones of 
the sequence via IterativeCondition[1].

Hi

I am still interested in getting an answer, if anyone can help ?

If I have a pattern sequence like this:

val eventPattern = Pattern
   .begin[TestData](“start”).where( // Sets variable X here //)
   .followedBy(“end”).where( // Reads value of variable X here //)

How to set variable X in “start” and how to read the value of the variable X in 
“end” ?

Should or can I use global variables ?

Should variables be declared in TestData ? And how ?

Best, Esa

Hi

Or is it possible to use global or local variables inside in pattern sequence ?
And how (by Scala) ?

Subject: CEP: use of values of previously accepted event

Hi

I have tried to read [1] and understand how to get values of previously 
accepted event to use in current event (or pattern).

Iterative conditions (with context.getEventsForPatterns) do something like 
that, but it gets all previously accepter events..
How to get only last one (by Scala) ? Are there exist examples about that ?

For example, if i have consecutive patterns:

1.       Search event A and read its value: B (that can also be different, like 
C)

2.       Search the next event based on value of A, that is B, so event B is 
searched

This is little bit like searching links of list. It is also possible that an 
event can include many next events, so that means it is like tree- or DAG- 
pattern structure.

The pattern structure of list, tree or DAG is not known before processing, but 
during (and after) the processing.. Is that problem ?
