Hi,
I can't seem to make this syntax work in Drools 4.0.2. Pls. see my sample
code below.
________________________________________
class MyClass {
String id;
String name;
MyClass(String id, String name){
this.id = id;
this.name = name;
}
:
getter, setter methods
:
}
MyClass obj = new MyClass("1"", "name");
TreeMap<String, MyClass> mapOfObj = new TreeMap<String, MyClass>();
mapOfObj.put("keyOfObj", obj);
________________________________________
DRL file
-------
global java.util.TreeMap mapOfObj;
rule chkobj
when
obj : MyClass(mapOfObj["keyOfObj"].id == "1");
eval(obj.getName() == "name");
________________________________________
I'm getting this error: org.drools.RuntimeDroolsException:
java.lang.NullPointerException
at
org.drools.rule.EvalCondition.isAllowed(EvalCondition.java:76)
Is my syntax correct and has someone used this in 4.0.2 or should I move on
to Drools 4.0.3? Thanks in advance.
Regards,
shaz
