Re: [rules-dev] class loading problems with 5.3.0-Final and 5.4.0-SNAPSHOT

Mauricio, I am the author of that change, so maybe I can help. First of all it seems weird to me that both the 5.3.0-Final and the 5.4.0-SNAPSHOT fail in the same way. I suppose the exception thrown by the 5.3 should be at least slightly different because it uses a different implementation of the ConsequenceGenerator. If so could you please send also the exception you get with the 5.3? Moreover I honestly don't know what WSO2 is but I guess this issue could be related with some specific constraint in its ClassLoader. Could you give me some more info in order to allow me to reproduce the same problem? By the way, does it happens with any rules or do you have a specific use case that causes this problem? In the end I can give you a quick workaround, but you will have to change the Drools source and of course recompile it. If you can do that you have to go to the JavaDialect class: https://github.com/droolsjbpm/drools/blob/master/drools-compiler/src/main... comment all the lines using the new ASM*Builders (94, 98, 102, 106) and uncomment the lines for the corresponding Java*Builer (92, 96, 100, 104). I know this is not the ideal solution, but at least it will allow us to figure out if the problem is actually where I am supposing. I could easily implement a fallback mechanism that will use the old Builders if the new ones fail for some reason, but before to do that I'd like to understand what's going on. So it will be great if you could send be some more details to help me to figure out what's wrong. I hope this helps, Mario On Tue, Nov 15, 2011 at 4:14 PM, Mauricio Salatino <salaboy(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote: Hi guys, I'm working here trying to find out a little problem that I'm having with Drools 5.4.0-SNAPSHOT and 5.3.0-Final. I'm using WSO2 container to deploy a very simple service and when a rule gets activated the following exception appears (with 5.4.0-SNAPSHOT): Exception in thread "Thread-44" java.lang.ClassCircularityError: org/drools/rule/builder/dialect/asm/ConsequenceGenerator at java.lang.Class.forName0(Native Method) at java.lang.Class.forName(Class.java:247) at org.drools.util.CompositeClassLoader$CachingLoader.load(CompositeClassLoader.java:262) at org.drools.util.CompositeClassLoader.loadClass(CompositeClassLoader.java:105) at org.drools.rule.JavaDialectRuntimeData$PackageClassLoader.loadClass(JavaDialectRuntimeData.java:540) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:247) at org.eclipse.core.runtime.internal.adaptor.ContextFinder.loadClass(ContextFinder.java:124) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:247) at java.lang.Class.forName0(Native Method) at java.lang.Class.forName(Class.java:247) at org.drools.util.CompositeClassLoader$CachingLoader.load(CompositeClassLoader.java:262) at org.drools.util.CompositeClassLoader.loadClass(CompositeClassLoader.java:105) at org.drools.rule.JavaDialectRuntimeData$PackageClassLoader.loadClass(JavaDialectRuntimeData.java:540) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:247) at test.Rule_request_bed_ede4a687c29740c8bb9f13968941e6a1DefaultConsequenceInvoker.evaluate(Unknown Source) at org.drools.common.DefaultAgenda.fireActivation(DefaultAgenda.java:1091) at org.drools.common.DefaultAgenda.fireNextItem(DefaultAgenda.java:1029) at org.drools.common.DefaultAgenda.fireUntilHalt(DefaultAgenda.java:1229) at org.drools.common.AbstractWorkingMemory.fireUntilHalt(AbstractWorkingMemory.java:756) at org.drools.common.AbstractWorkingMemory.fireUntilHalt(AbstractWorkingMemory.java:732) at org.drools.impl.StatefulKnowledgeSessionImpl.fireUntilHalt(StatefulKnowledgeSessionImpl.java:234) at com.wordpress.salaboy.hospital.HospitalServiceImpl$1.run(HospitalServiceImpl.java:71) I'm worried to see that I don't have any problems with 5.1.1 but with later version all throw similar issues. I will be trying to solve this issue, but if someone has a clue about what can be happening here, please let me know. I know that this can be a particular issue with WSO2, but it looks like something has changed inside drools.
