Remove the MVEL dependency from kie-internal -------------------------------------------- Key: DROOLS-871 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/DROOLS-871 Project: Drools Issue Type: Bug Components: core engine Reporter: Marco Rietveld Assignee: Mario Fusco Fix For: 6.2.0.Final, 6.3.0.Final The {{kie-internal}} module has a dependency on MVEL. This jira is for the task of removing that dependency from {{kie-internal}}. The problem is that the MVEL dependency ({{org.mvel:mvel2}}) is nearly 1MB large! This means that the dependency tree grows by 1MB everywhere where {{kie-internal}} is used, among others: {{kie-remote-client}}, which has the explicit goal of being as small a dependency as possible, given that it's meant to be used as a lightweight client jar.
