[rules-users] Custom Evaluator compile time error, If I am upgrading from drool 5.0 to 5.3

[kashif10]

As my Evauator LHS is string , so I am setting STRING_TYPE in my Evaluator
definition class.

 CodeEvaluator extends BaseEvaluator {

			public CodeEvaluator() {
	            super( ValueType.STRING_TYPE,
	                   D1Operator.COMPARE_CODE );
	        }


But if I use that operator with || then compiler pointed that it should be
OBJECT_TYPE.
And If changed my evaluator definition then its start working ok, but it
pointed error If I use that operator alone or with && hat it should be
STRING_TYPE

*Solution*
I remain it to STRING_TYPE in evaluator class.

But add that operator as both object & string in EvaluatorCache as  follows:


	            addEvaluator( ValueType.STRING_TYPE,        
D1Operator.COMPARE_CODE,       	    CodeEvaluator.INSTANCE );
	            addEvaluator( ValueType.OBJECT_TYPE,        
D1Operator.COMPARE_CODE,       	    CodeEvaluator.INSTANCE );
