[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/DROOLS-1168?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugi... ] Sante Stanisci reopened DROOLS-1168: ------------------------------------ briefly describe the problem: instead of using the modify in the then condition, I need to use a custom class which changes the value. Then to notify the news to call Drools update ($entity) but this is not enough and that the rule should take cascade does not fire. I made the following test //not notify then String[] fields = new String[]{"untMisVen"}; DroolsUtil.completeEntity($entity, fields, $untMis); update($entity) end ----------------- //notify but it not possible use this then String[] fields = new String[]{"untMisVen"}; DroolsUtil.completeEntity($entity, fields, $untMis); $entity.setUntMisVen($entity.getUntMisVen()); update($entity) end I note that in update operation bitmask in case 1 is at 0 contrary to case 2 where have a value. I attach rules and classes -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.11#64026)
