[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBRULES-3587?page=com.atlassian.jira.plug... ] Jörg Henne updated JBRULES-3587: -------------------------------- Description: Declarations (like {{@role(event)}} ) in a {{declare}}-Section should apply to sub-classes of the declared class, too, but don't if the sub-class resides in a different package than the base class. Attached you'll find an example which demonstrates the issue. The class {{ButtonEvent}} derives from {{VSCPEvent}} which is declared with {{@role(event)}}. Running {{com.levigo.overlord.DroolsTest}} yields a {{java.lang.ClassCastException: org.drools.common.DefaultFactHandle}} which is caused by the ButtonEvent not being recognized as an event instead of a fact. The Problem goes away if {{ButtonEvent}} is declared as an event (uncomment the section in {{overlord.drl}} or {{ButtonEvent}} is moved to the same package as {{VSCPEvent}}. For more information see the referenced forum thread. was: Declarations (like {{@role(event)}}) in a {{declare}}-Section should apply to sub-classes of the declared class, too, but don't if the sub-class resides in a different package than the base class.
