<P DIR=LTR><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">Hi,</FONT></SPAN></P>
<P DIR=LTR><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">I</FONT><FONT FACE="Calibri">’</FONT><FONT FACE="Calibri">m a newbie of Drools and I just met a problem when learning Drools Flow according to Drools online documents.</FONT></SPAN></P>
<P DIR=LTR><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">I create a workitem,</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"><I> <FONT FACE="Calibri">Notification</FONT></I></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">, exactly according</FONT> <FONT FACE="Calibri">to Chapter 8 in Drools Flow Doc. I create</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"> <FONT FACE="Calibri">MyWorkDefinitions.conf</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri"> and</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"> <FONT FACE="Calibri">drools.rulebase.conf</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">, and then put them in classpath. Also, I create one image to be used by the item.</FONT></SPAN></P>
<P DIR=LTR><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">However, this new workitem is not found in RuleFlow Editor. I</FONT><FONT FACE="Calibri">’</FONT><FONT FACE="Calibri">m not sure if someth</FONT><FONT FACE="Calibri">ing else is needed. Can you guys please guide me to adding new workitem and dragging/drawing it in RuleFlow Editor? </FONT></SPAN></P>
<P DIR=LTR><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">FYI. Though the RuleFlow editor cannot work with the new workitem, the XML style works. I mean, I could manually change the XML of .rf fil</FONT><FONT FACE="Calibri">e to use the new workitem. </FONT></SPAN></P>
<P DIR=LTR><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">The work environment is JDK5, Drools5, Eclipse 3.4.5 and GEF 3.5.</FONT></SPAN></P>
<P DIR=LTR><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">The two conf files are also attached.</FONT></SPAN></P>
