Can someone tell why the data converter does not work at all and what is the reason we make the data converter to value assignment statement only?
public void testDataConverter() throws Exception { OptimizerFactory.setDefaultOptimizer(OptimizerFactory.SAFE_REFLECTIVE); DataConversion.addConversionHandler(Date.class, new MyDateConverter()); Locale.setDefault(Locale.US); Cheese cheese = new Cheese(); cheese.setUseBy(new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MMM-yyyy").parse("10-Jul-1974")); Map<String, Object> variables = new HashMap<String, Object>(); variables.put("cheese", cheese); Serializable compiledExpression = MVEL.compileExpression("cheese.useBy == '10-Jul-1974'"); boolean result = MVEL.executeExpression(compiledExpression, variables, Boolean.class); assertTrue(result); } Here is what I can see from the code, at the end this method will be called, would it be nice to allow the data converter here? private static Boolean safeEquals(final Object val1, final Object val2) { if (val1 != null) { return val1.equals(val2) ? Boolean.TRUE : Boolean.FALSE; } else return val2 == null || (val2.equals(val1) ? Boolean.TRUE : Boolean.FALSE); } ----- Ivan, your Panda, forever -- View this message in context: http://drools.46999.n3.nabble.com/MVEL-the-data-converter-does-not-work-tp3581797p3581797.html Sent from the Drools: User forum mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ rules-users mailing list rules-users@lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/rules-users
