Re: [rules-dev] Bug report - a lucky catch if I ever saw one

I don't think the problem is in there. I think MVEL is tokenizing the "in" in the end of your variable as the operator "in" and raising the error. We need to open a bug for cbrock to fix, but we need an isolated MVEL test case. In case you or someone has the time to do it, just use one of the tests here as an example: http://github.com/mikebrock/mvel/blob/master/src/test/java/org/mvel2/test... And open a JIRA here: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MVEL Otherwise I will do it when I get the time.
