RuleEngine AfterEvaluator.evaluateCachedRight throws NPE on persisted Session reload (Phreak, Stream, PseudoClock) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: DROOLS-275 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/DROOLS-275 Project: Drools Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Affects Versions: 6.0.0.CR3 Environment: Mac OS-X 10.8.5, Hotspot 1.7.0_40 Reporter: Duncan Doyle Assignee: Mark Proctor I persist a KieSession via the Marshaller (serializable) with one fact/event inserted. On reload of the session, I can see that fact is still there (when I check the FactHandles) and the PseudoClock is at the correct time (the time when I persisted it). If I then insert another fact/event into this reloaded session which matches the following rule: rule "SimpleFactTimeWindow" when $s1: SimpleFact() from entry-point LinkyStream $s2: SimpleFact(this != $s1, this after [0s, 10s] $s1) from entry-point LinkyStream then System.out.println("Rule fired, found 2 Facts within the time window."); end I get a NPE (in both Phreak and ReteOO mode).

JVM and reload it in another. When I load the KieSession in the same JVM as the one in which I persisted it, there is no exception and the rule get's fired (as expected). I created a reproducer project for it: https://github.com/DuncanDoyle/DroolsSessionPersistenceNPE/ I've added some Maven profiles so you can easily observe the behaviour: - mvn -PallRuns exec:java : this runs both the persistence and the reload in the same JVM, no exception, everything works fine. - mvn -PfirstRun exec:java : this runs the first part of the test, and saves the KieSession to a file. - mvn -PsecondRun exec:java : this runs the second part of the test, which loads the previously saved KieSession from the file and inserts a new fact, resulting in the NPE. All three tests can also be run in ReteOO mode by adding "-Ddrools.ruleEngine=reteoo" at the end of the command.
