<p class=MsoNormal>No they are not compatible, 5.0 has a new ePDL XML language

<p class=MsoNormal>Hi All,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>I wanted to know if RuleFlows made using the Eclipse 4.0.7
RuleFlow Builder will work with 5.0.0.&nbsp; When, I try to upload a 4.0.7
ruleflow into Guvnor, I get a NullPointerException and before that the
following:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Cannot find the declaration of element
'org.drools.ruleflow.core.impl.RuleFlowProcessImpl'.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>I checked the 5.0.0M1 jars for drools-core, and this class
seems to have been removed from there. Also, after installing the 5.0.0 plug-in
into Eclipse, my rule-flow nodes have all gone. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Also, this may be a minor bug but it says(both in the docs
and the BRMS Guvnor M1 Release):<o:p></o:p></p>
