[rules-users] Drools 5.5 and Java 1.6 versus 1.7 Question

[rbiller]

Does anyone know of a compatibility matrix that shows what JDK versions are
compatible with Drools 5.5? The documentation mentions at least Java 1.5 is
needed, and says some examples may need 1.6. 

I have encountered a problem when classes are compiled with Java 1.7, in
that if they are referenced by a DRL file, the rules compiler gives the
error "[Class] cannot be resolved to a type" for the classes that were
compiled (actually the whole jar) with Java 1.7.

Here is my post when I was trying to resolve that compile issue: 
Previous post on [Class] cannot be resolved to a type error

The rule compiler error went away when I recompiled the classes and deployed
the jar using Java 1.6. Anyone else have an issue with 1.7, or know if
Drools 5.5 is supposed to be compatible?

Thanks,
rb
