[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Updated: (JBRULES-867) Can't load classes from expanded class dir on windows

Can't load classes from expanded class dir on windows ----------------------------------------------------- Key: JBRULES-867 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBRULES-867 Project: JBoss Rules Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: Drl Parser/Builder Affects Versions: 3.0.6 Environment: Windows XP SP2 (problem not reproducable on Linux), JDK 1.5.0_11-b03, Ant 1.7.0, Eclipse 3.2.2 Reporter: Dan Lipofsky Assigned To: Edson Tirelli Priority: Minor Fix For: FUTURE When running some JUnit tests of our rules from an Ant task or from Eclipse, we got the following rule compile errors: org.drools.rule.InvalidRulePackage: Rule Compilation error The import com.bricsnet.core.util.constants cannot be resolved UserGroup cannot be resolved The same rules compile perfectly on the server. On the server the class is question is only available from a JAR file. In Eclipse it in an expanded class dir. In the Ant task both the expanded class dir and the JAR file were in the classpath, but the expanded class dir was first. Putting the JAR first on the classpath solved the problem for the ant task (but this is not possible for eclipse since the JAR is not available). Therefore we believe the problem is specifically related to loading from an expanded class dir. The problem seems to occur on Windows but not Linux. Finally the problem only seems to occur for some classes. All 3 of the classes in the sample rule file below are in the same boat, but for some reason only UserGroup is a problem (it might be the Example 1 (fails): package com.foobar.rules; import com.foobar.core.util.constants.UserGroup; import com.foobar.core.util.security.principal.UserPrincipal; import com.foobar.core.util.security.auth.RuleAuthorization; rule "test_rule" when r: RuleAuthorization() u: UserPrincipal() eval(u.hasGroup(123)) then r.setLevel(RuleAuthorization.READ); end Example 2 (works): package com.foobar.rules; import com.foobar.core.util.security.principal.UserPrincipal; import com.foobar.core.util.security.auth.RuleAuthorization; rule "test_rule" when r: RuleAuthorization() u: UserPrincipal() eval(u.hasGroup(123)) then r.setLevel(RuleAuthorization.READ); end
