I have a deftemplate which contains a multislot in JESS and I want to delete a variable in the multilot if the rule is fired. for example:
(deftemplate Person (slot name)
(multislot friends))
(assert (Person (name John)(friends Jimmy Joe Jessica)))
now i want to delete Jimmy from the friends slot.
Thank you very much Ali
I've fixed some omissions in your question, assuming that the template name is Person
.
This rule eliminates Jimmy from all friends
of all Persons.
(defrule KillJimmy
?p <- (Person (friends $?a Jimmy $?b))
=>
(modify ?p (friends (create$ $?a $?b)))
)
