According to java documentation the result of Map.put is:<div><br></div><div>&quot;the previous value associated with <tt>key</tt>, or <tt>null</tt> if there was no mapping for <tt>key</tt>. (A <tt>null</tt> return can also indicate that the map previously associated <tt>null</tt> with <tt>key</tt>, if the implementation supports <tt>null</tt> values.)&quot;<br>

Hi,<br>
i m trying to do something like this.<br>
<br>
RHS OF MY RULE<br>
================<br>
Map &lt;String, String&gt;$result = new HashMap&lt;String, String&gt;();<br>
Map &lt;String, Map&gt;$rule = new HashMap&lt;String, Map&gt;();<br>
$result.put(&quot;Result1&quot;, &quot;@{Result1}&quot;);<br>
$result.put(&quot;Result2&quot;, &quot;@{Result2}&quot;);<br>
$result.put(&quot;Result3&quot;, &quot;@{Result3}&quot;);<br>
$testObj.getResult().add($rule.put(drools.getRule().getName(), $result));<br>
update($testObj.getResult());<br>
<br>
i am not able to get this 2 object i.e &quot;result and rule&quot; from my java code<br>
after the execution of the rule. even though i have the reference of testobj<br>
in my java code.<br>
<br>
did i miss anything?<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>

Thanks...<br>
