After one of those, Mark has urged me to create another JIRA for
MVEL, and this I just won't do. For me, as a /Drools /user, this
project /Drools /has adopted MVEL as a vehicle for primary expression
and statement evaluation; since 5.2.0 it seems that I don't have a
choice for some parts of the Drools language. For me, this means that
the full responsibility now rests with the Drools team - I cannot
simply work around by sticking with 'dialect "java"'.
The best way to get MVEL fixed is to submit unit tests. Such as the
examples here:
https://github.com/mvel/mvel/blob/master/src/test/java/org/mvel2/tests/core/CoreConfidenceTests.java
Mike isn't religious about jiras, but he will insist on a unit test.
Using a github fork to write the unit test and then submit a pull
request is trivial to do.
Sorry if this sounds harsh and egocentric, but what I've heard about
MVEL maintainer's non-eagerness for fixing bugs hasn't inspired me to
do otherwise. (Since this is hearsay, I should add the politically
correct statement: "innocent until proven otherwise".)
Mike just won't explore bugs, without unit tests. Once a unit test is
in place he's responsive in fixing it. Which is fair enough.
