I'm trying to use the enabled function to ensure that some rules only fire
under certain conditions.
I have the following in my DRL :
rule "Load pricelist"
salience 10000
when
$unitPrice : Pricelist() from
PricelistUtilities.getPriceLists()
then
insert ($unitPrice);
end
rule "Retract a priced unit"
salience 5000
when
$priceUnit : PriceUnit( basePrice != null )
then
System.out.println("Retracting ..." + $priceUnit);
retract ( $priceUnit );
end
rule "Price Unit by Prodid, Grade, Pattern, Color"
enabled ( $detailPrice == true )
salience 2500
when
$priceUnit : PriceUnit ( $detailPrice : detailPrice )
$priceList : Pricelist( prodid == $priceUnit.prodid,
coverGrade ==
$priceUnit.coverGrade, coverSeries == $priceUnit.coverSeries, coverColor ==
$priceUnit.coverColor )
then
modify ( $priceUnit ) {
setBasePrice ( $priceList.getBasePrice() );
}
end
rule "Price Unit by Prodid, Grade, Pattern"
enabled ( $detailPrice == true )
salience 2000
when
$priceUnit : PriceUnit ( $detailPrice : detailPrice )
$priceList : Pricelist( prodid == $priceUnit.prodid,
coverGrade ==
$priceUnit.coverGrade , coverSeries == $priceUnit.coverSeries )
then
modify ( $priceUnit ) {
setBasePrice ( $priceList.getBasePrice() );
}
end
rule "Price Unit by Prodid, Grade, Pattern 0000"
salience 1500
when
$priceUnit : PriceUnit ( )
$priceList : Pricelist( prodid == $priceUnit.prodid,
coverGrade ==
$priceUnit.coverGrade , coverSeries == "0000" )
then
System.out.println("Pricing unit : " + $priceUnit + " from " +
$priceList);
$priceUnit.setBasePrice($priceList.getBasePrice());
update ( $priceUnit );
end
Before adding the 'enabled' conditions to the rules, it all worked fine. But
after adding the 'enabled' function, I'm getting the following NullPointer
exception :
Exception executing consequence for rule "Price Unit by Prodid, Grade,
Pattern 0000" in com.sample: java.lang.NullPointerException

... 6 more
In the console I also see the results of my System.out.println :
Pricing unit : PriceUnit [prodid=001001, coverGrade= A, coverSeries=1234,
coverColor=05, basePrice=null] from Pricelist [prodid=001001, cover=
A0000null, basePrice=599]
The only 'null' is $priceUnit.basePrice, which is what I'm trying to set.
I only get the exception when the 'detailedPrice' of PriceUnit is set to
false (i.e. when "Price Unit by Prodid, Grade, Pattern 0000" is attempting
to fire. If I set detailedPrice to true, the other rules fire just fine.
If I comment out the 'update ( $priceUnit );', the consequence fires just
fine, but then other rules fire as well. When PriceUnit's pattern is set to
anything other than '1234', then too consequence of ""Price Unit by Prodid,
Grade, Pattern 0000"" rule fires just fine and I get the following output
(correctly so) :
Pricing unit : PriceUnit [prodid=001001, coverGrade= A, coverSeries=3456,
coverColor=05, basePrice=null] from Pricelist [prodid=001001, cover=
A0000null, basePrice=599]
Retracting ...PriceUnit [prodid=001001, coverGrade= A, coverSeries=3456,
coverColor=05, basePrice=599]
What is causing the 'NullPointerException' ?
I'm using Drools 5.4.0.
Please help.
