Is it possible to see the generated Java code for the rules?

You are missing something. :-) That's possible.

However we have found regular debuggers "not to helpful".
Have a look at the WorkingMemoryLoggers, they can give you a detailed  
insight of what's going on inside Drools, ie.
* Facts inserted, changed, retracted
* Activations
* Rules fired

4.0.7: http://downloads.jboss.com/drools/docs/4.0.7.19894.GA/apidocs/org/drools/audit/WorkingMemoryFileLogger.html
(The Drools Eclipse Plugin can be used to view these logs).

To be useful, this requires a usable toString, we have created those  
using apache commmons-lang.

Happy hunting!
