[great-users] picking one packet out of a group

Hey Matt,

Maybe I'm making the problem too easy, but don't you just want to set the "ForAll" attribute of the rule to false?  That will execute all of the packets until it finds a match, then discard the rest.

Suppose I have 3 packets coming into a rule, like the picture below:

 

 

 

What I need to do is execute the rule of one and only one of those inputs, and drop the rest. I don’t even care which one it is.

 

The reason is that inside the rule I’m writing deletes an object contained in each of those input packets. So, I can delete it the first time fine, but then the transformation will crash when the next rule comes in because it contains a “deleted” object. So, all I want is to pick any one of those input packets, delete the object, and move on.

 

Is there any way to do this?

 

--Matt
