[rules-users] Drools 6 and dynamic update

[Mark Proctor]

As per previous email:

1) Create your original project with rules, build and deploy the jar.
2) Load the JAR to create a KieContainer.
3) add or change rules. Change the maven version, build and deploy the jar.
4) Ensure the JAR is in the KieRepository, or available to maven if using kie-ci, and call KieContainer.updateToVersion( ReleaseId). 

This will ensure your KieContainer is updated, and all existing stateful sessions will be incrementally updated too. Assuming no bugs :)

On a side note, on master, there is a change to ensure that the Maven syntax for scanNow (with using the KieScanner) is obeyed. see
