Thanks, I'll look at the eval article, wasn't sure how to avoid them but
will endeavor to find a way.
I found my way around the original problem, not even sure what it was now.
I'm not sure the memberOf and taglist would generally work for us. The
problem is that there are several patterns in the
If I understood the problem, one way would be (assuming $tags is a global
list):
when
Person( ageInYears >= 18, $tagList : tagList )
exists( String( this memberof $tags ) from $tagList )
then
...
end
If $tags is a fact, just bind it before the "exists".

Charlie,
I'm not sure why your function doesn't compile as it looks fine to me. Do
you have any other details about the message you're getting from the
compiler?
In any case, you may want to consider solving the problem a different way.
In general, you should try to avoid "eval" statements whenev
Charlie,
Can u explain more simply, without the function, what u are trying to do? Is
it just to see if there exists a Person, whose tagList property contains a
string that is the same as one of the engrTags from a TagCodes?

I'm fairly new to Drools so there may be an easier way to do this. I need to
check to see if any one of a list of tags on an object are in another list
of tags and am trying to do that with a function. the compiler tells me it
can't compile my eval function:
#list any import classes here.
