Re: [rules-users] Using work items in the Eclipse ruleflow editor
This is true; using another file name worked! Thanks alot for helping me, I hope this discussion helps others too. And thanks for clarifying about the "resources" source folder instead of "src/main/resources", it really didn't matter like I thought it did.

Re: [rules-users] Using work items in the Eclipse ruleflow editor
As followup, I should note that when trying to change the MyDefinitions.conf name to WorkDefinitions.conf (and reflecting the change in the drools.rulebase.conf file), the work item disappears. Does anyone know why this may be happening? bbking wrote: > > Thanks so much!

Re: [rules-users] Using work items in the Eclipse ruleflow editor
Thanks so much! Following this screencast worked like a charm for me! My problem was that I had been creating a resources folder under root (which shows up as "resources" src folder in eclipse) rather than src/main/resources (which shows up as "src/main/resources" src folder in eclipse).

Re: [rules-users] Using work items in the Eclipse ruleflow editor
I've been attempting to contribute my own work item following the instructions on this post and the drools flow user guide to no avail. I'm using Drools 5.0.1 in Eclipse which I added as a plugin using the software updates. (checking the plugins folder I only have org.drools.eclipse_5.0.1 & org.drools.eclipse.task_5.0.1; i'm not sure if that has anything to do with it) I've created a new drools project and created the resources directory as a source directory and created the META-INF directory and put the necessary files in the directory. along with an icons package. Any insight? Jeremy Ary wrote: > > Mike, > > I ran into a similar issue when I began working with ruleflows a few weeks > ago.

[rules-users] Starting ruleflow on event
I'm using Drools 5.0.1 and have read in the online documentation that i can start a process on event: "Events could also be used to start a process. Whenever a Start node defines an event trigger of a specific type, a new process instance will be started every time that type of event is signalled to the process engine." However, I cannot find a property on the Start activity that exposes this functionality. Am I missing something? -- View this message in context: http://n3.nabble.com/Starting-ruleflow-on-event-tp73368p73368.html Sent from the Drools - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ rules-users mailing list rules-users@lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/rules-users
