Hello Peter, Thank you very much for nailing down the issue. I had the right DECLARE syntax in my ruta script but my Type System was not updated with the last Type I declared in my script. After adding this manually, everything worked fine. BTW, I'm using the ruta eclipse Workbench and I noticed that my Type System gets updated automatically when I save my ruta script but, for some reasons, this is not happening anymore. I suspect it is because it treats my extension function as a syntax error at design time sine I do not have the IDE extension for my function. Thanks, Wassim...

In the Workbench, there should be a problem because of the keyword "Declare", which needs to be written all caps ("DECLARE"). Then, the generated type system misses the declared types. However, it possible, but unlikely that the rules are actually parsed, if the script contains syntax errors. If just the example contains the wrong keyword, but not your actual script, then you could take a look at the type system you are using. It probably does not contain the types.
