[rules-users] bytecode representation of rules

[Mainul Raju]

Thanks a lot. At least we are on the same track :). 

I already dumped it into a directory and It gives me all generated .java files. At this point, trying to figure out some ways around for static analysis on rules by using SOOT. No luck yet :( . 

Thanks again for your informative response.

   Tough question to answer as not everything in a DRL file becomes bytecode, and not all in the same place. For instance, rule consequences and other semantic code blocks, when using the java dialect, will become a class that is code generated and compiled in memory. You can see that code by setting the dump dir option in the KnowledgeBuilderConfiguration object (or -Ddrools.dump.dir=<path> on the command line). 

   Constraints on the other hand will become a mix of JIT bytecode and/or MVEL expressions and/or object accessors, depending on several factors. Since they are shared among multiple rules, they don't belong to a single rule in particular, but become part of the Rete network, that is basically an in-memory data structure.

   Not exactly sure if this helps you...
