[rules-users] Drools in non-eclipse environment

That's exactly what I am trying out at the moment .. option - b.  Pre-compile, serialize and unserialize ...I'll share the results.
Also rule file's there at the location mentioned. So that's not a problem.
I've gone through the blog you mentioned ... and as you indicated, it's only jbpm .. no rules ...

thanks

Preparing to be shouted down, but isn't it impossible to compile DRL on Android and the suggestion is to load pre-serialised KnowledgeBases?

Also, as another observation, are you sure the DRL was indeed found and the NPE is not caused by "com.ts.DBconnector.readKnowledgeBase(DBconnector.java:143)" perhaps passing a null to KnowledgeBuilder?

Have you looked at http://blog.athico.com/2011/03/jbpm5-lightweight-running-on-android.html, which might give some pointers - although it is only jBPM and not rules themselves.

With kind regards,

Mike

               KnowledgeBuilderConfiguration kbConfig = KnowledgeBuilderFactory.newKnowledgeBuilderConfiguration( properties, (ClassLoader[]) null );
               KnowledgeBuilder kbuilder = KnowledgeBuilderFactory.newKnowledgeBuilder(kbConfig);
               kbuilder.add(ResourceFactory.newInputStreamResource(is), ResourceType.DRL);

I am getting same error with KnowledgeBuilderConfiguration ..

You might try this:

    Properties props = new Properties();
    props.put( "drools.dialect.java.compiler", "JANINO" );

   KnowledgeBuilderConfiguration kbConfig =
       KnowledgeBuilderFactory.newKnowledgeBuilderConfiguration( props, (ClassLoader[]) null );

Requires the janino jar in your classpath, which I have as
  ~/.m2/repository/janino/janino/2.5.15/janino-2.5.15.jar

I am using drools 5.1.0

Let me explain what I am trying to do.  I am trying to write a drools app on to android platform.  In my app, I have added following jars in the application classpath -

antlr-runtime.jar
drools-api.jar
drools-compiler.jar
drools-core.jar
mvel2.jar

Do I need any other jar files ?

upon drilling down into the Null Pointer Exception, it appears that it is throwing NPE at following line inside RuleBuilder.java


  RuleConditionBuilder builder = (RuleConditionBuilder)context.getDialect().getBuilder(ruleDescr.getLhs().getClass());

and on further drilling, I found that "context.getDialect()" is retuning NULL.

Then I put some debug inside PackageBuilder.java

upon drilling down for the error, found out that it is not able to set the context's dialect.
ctr.getDialect(pkgRegistry.getDialect()) gives "null" ...

DialectCompiletimeRegistry ctr = pkgRegistry.getDialectCompiletimeRegistry();
RuleBuildContext context = new RuleBuildContext(this, ruleDescr, ctr, pkg, ctr.getDialect(pkgRegistry.getDialect()));

Is there any default setting /configuration that I am obviously missing ?

what could be the problem ?

Which version of drools is this?
For drools 5.0.1 we just use maven to resolve the dependencies for us and it works fine. I can't obviously see any eclipse compiler in the jars that we distribute with our application.
