Re: [rules-dev] Proxy classes and setGlobal

Ah, seems to be a classloader issue (surprise). Hmm, not sure how to work around this. So I have my Drools resource adapter (http://code.google.com/p/drools-jca/), and I have the KnowledgeBase that it produces injected as a @Resource into a stateless session bean: @Resource private KnowledgeBase kb; So the resource adapter, under whatever classloader it's under, reads in my rules file and compiles the KnowledgeBase. Let's say this is classloader A. Then, at bean invocation time, I ask this kb to give me a new StatefulKnowledgeSession. It's here that I call setGlobal(), and pass it a reference to another EJB. This is all happening under the auspices of classloader B. Now, Drools takes this global and evaluates it against the declared type--in the rules file--of the global "slot" it's supposed to fill. I can only assume that classloader A is loading up the global type declaration and classloader B is supplying the global itself. Consequently, the supplied global is NOT an instance of classloader A's version of the interface. Rats; this will take some work. best, Laird -- View this message in context: http://drools-java-rules-engine.46999.n3.nabble.com/Proxy-classes-and-set...
