Make sure that ResourceFactory.newClassPathResource("HelloWorld.drl", DroolsTest.class) is != null. I had to re-compile the CompositeClassLoader.java file and then reinsert it into the drools-api-5.1.0.M2.jar file to get past this issue: "A small modification is needed in org.drools.util.CompositeClassLoader. Apparently, the Android JVM doesn't allow null as the parent classloader so I changed that to super(CompositeClassLoader.class.getClassLoader()) in the constructor, and that works fine." Yes, that's come up in other Java environments as well, and IIRC been fixed on the way towards 5.2.0. )There ought to be a closed JIRA, if s.o. cares to look it up.)
