Getting "could not access property ('=')" for a valid rule. ----------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBRULES-1089 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBRULES-1089 Project: JBoss Rules Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Components: Drl Parser/Builder Affects Versions: 4.0.0.GA Environment: WinXP, Java 1.6.0 (Sun), running within Eclipse 3.2.2 Reporter: Arsalan Zaidi Assigned To: Mark Proctor From: rules-users-bounces(a)lists.jboss.org on behalf of Edson Tirelli [tirelli(a)post.com] Sent: 13 August 2007 22:16 To: Rules Users List Subject: Re: [rules-users] could not access property ('=') Attachments: ATT426765.txt This looks like an MVEL issue, since your expression is being converted into an MVEL predicate. May I ask you please to open a JIRA for that bug? Meanwhile, a workaround that shall work for you and may give you improved perf is to split your pattern into 2 patterns using the from keyword: when $dto : DTO( ) W250_4_1( value in ("0" ,"1" ,"6" ,"7" ,"A" ,"C" ,"D" ,"G" ,"L" ,"M" ,"P" ,"Q" ,"S" ,"V" ,"Z" ) ) from $dto.w250_4_1 then Thanks, and hope it helps. Edson 2007/8/13, Arsalan S. Zaidi < arsalan.zaidi(a)capgemini.com&gt;: Hi. I've currently evaluating Drools 4.0 for a project of ours and I'm running into some problems. I have a rule which looks like this: rule "W250.42 Editable" when DTO(w250_4_1.value in ("0" ,"1" ,"6" ,"7" ,"A" ,"C" ,"D" ,"G" ,"L" ,"M" ,"P" ,"Q" ,"S" ,"V" ,"Z" ) ) then System.out.println ("0" ); Action action = createAction("W250.42" , false , true ); retList.add(action); end both DTO and w250_4_1 are extremely simple beans. w250_4_1 just has 1 property 'value' which is a String and DTO has one property w250_4_1 which is the bean w250_4_1 . Now when I put "0" into w250_4_1 then everything works fine. The rule is true and the 'then' portion is executed. However, if I set w250_4_1 to "6" (which is also present in the in (...)) then I get the following error. org.drools.RuntimeDroolsException : Exception executing predicate org.drools.base.mvel.MVELPredicateExpression@118fa47 at org.drools.rule.PredicateConstraint.isAllowed(PredicateConstraint.java:197 ) at org.drools.reteoo.AlphaNode.assertObject(AlphaNode.java:122 ) at org.drools.reteoo.CompositeObjectSinkAdapter.propagateAssertObject(CompositeObjectSinkAdapter.java:317 ) at org.drools.reteoo.ObjectTypeNode.assertObject(ObjectTypeNode.java:168 ) at org.drools.reteoo.Rete.assertObject(Rete.java:168 ) at org.drools.reteoo.ReteooRuleBase.assertObject( ReteooRuleBase.java:190) at org.drools.reteoo.ReteooWorkingMemory.doInsert(ReteooWorkingMemory.java:70 ) at org.drools.common.AbstractWorkingMemory.insert(AbstractWorkingMemory.java:848 ) at org.drools.common.AbstractWorkingMemory.insert(AbstractWorkingMemory.java:822 ) at org.drools.common.AbstractWorkingMemory.insert(AbstractWorkingMemory.java:623 ) at com.sample.DroolsTest.main( DroolsTest.java:34) Caused by: org.mvel.PropertyAccessException: failed to access property: <<==>> in: class com.sample.DTOShadowProxy at org.mvel.optimizers.impl.refl.ReflectiveAccessorOptimizer.compileGetChain(ReflectiveAccessorOptimizer.java:137 ) at org.mvel.optimizers.impl.refl.ReflectiveAccessorOptimizer.optimizeAccessor(ReflectiveAccessorOptimizer.java:96 ) at org.mvel.ASTNode.getReducedValueAccelerated(ASTNode.java:194 ) at org.mvel.ast.Or.getReducedValueAccelerated(Or.java:18 ) at org.mvel.MVELRuntime.execute( MVELRuntime.java:87) at org.mvel.CompiledExpression.getValue( CompiledExpression.java:98) at org.mvel.MVEL.executeExpression( MVEL.java:202) at org.drools.base.mvel.MVELPredicateExpression.evaluate(MVELPredicateExpression.java:36 ) at org.drools.rule.PredicateConstraint.isAllowed(PredicateConstraint.java:191 ) ... 10 more Caused by: org.mvel.PropertyAccessException: could not access property ('=') at org.mvel.optimizers.impl.refl.ReflectiveAccessorOptimizer.getBeanProperty(ReflectiveAccessorOptimizer.java:252 ) at org.mvel.optimizers.impl.refl.ReflectiveAccessorOptimizer.compileGetChain(ReflectiveAccessorOptimizer.java:106 ) ... 18 more If I keep w250_4_1 as "0", but move "0" in the rule to any other place place in the in() list (e.g. in ("1","0",...), then I get a similar error. I get similar errors when trying to use 'not in' in the same circumstance, except that then the property is ('!') What seems to be the issue? Thanks in advance!
