[rules-users] Drools Upgrade to 5.4

[lhorton]

My shop is still on 5.2.0.Final, but FWIW I did get build.xml working to
compile rules files (in my case it was for decision tables).  I remember it
took a while to get all the classpaths correct.  Below is a snippet from my
build.xml; of course your jars will be different.  Also, I don't know if the
Drools ant task has been changed for 5.4.  But maybe you can get some ideas
from this:

<target name="-pre-dist">
	<property name="droolsPath" value="${build.web.dir}/WEB-INF/lib" />
	<path id="drools.classpath" >
		<pathelement location="${droolsPath}/drools-ant-5.2.0.Final.jar" />
		<pathelement location="${droolsPath}/knowledge-api-5.2.0.Final.jar" />
		<pathelement location="${droolsPath}/drools-core-5.2.0.Final.jar" />

	</path>
	<taskdef name="compiler"

	<path id="model.classpath" >

	</path>
	<echo>Compiling rules spreadsheets to binary package file</echo>
	<compiler srcdir="${build.web.dir}/packages/venue"
tofile="${build.web.dir}/packages/venue.pkg"
		binformat="package" bintype="knowledge" classpathref="model.classpath">

	</compiler>
</target>
