It appears that these changes have been made.  mvn -U brought down some new snapshots and all my prior NoSuchMethodError problems went away.

Now I am encountering (not surprisingly) other issues.

Specifically, the following rule:

rule "Testing contains"
  dialect "mvel"
  when
    Response( $answerSelections : answerSelections )
    AnswerSelection( answer.ID in (2, 3) )
  then
    System.out.println("Testing contains activated")
end

...produces an error message like this:

[Error: Failed to compile: 1 compilation error(s):
 - (1,9) unqualified type in strict mode for: ID]
[Near : {... Unknown ....}]
             ^
[Line: 1, Column: 0] : [Rule name='Testing contains']

AnswerSelection has a getAnswer() method, and Answer has a getID() method.  This rule passed mere days ago.  I seem to recall the notion of distinguishing between typesafe and non-typesafe constructs is a new 5.2.0 idea; maybe this is the next thing to need to be fixed?

Thanks,
Laird

Geoffrey can you please ping me when this problem is solved?
Or at least when we have new snapshots for compiler and core?
Thanks for the report!

Jari also encountered this problem.
The problem is caused by nexus having recent drools-core snapshots and old drools-compiler snapshots (as the second fails).

0) We cannot revert to a previous working timestamp, because there is no working timestamp since the artifacts have been renamed (=split-up).

1) As a workaround there's been decided to deploy test-failing snapshots of drools-compiler, drools-decisiontables, drools-verifier, ...
Most of the tests work. This situation will give a similar experience as when we had the monolithic build and there were test failures in drools-compiler on trunk.
Let's hope hudson is blue soon.

2) The bigger issue is that drools-core should not be deployed if drools-compiler fails.
Once hudson decently supports maven 3 jobs, I 'll fix that.

Laird,

We're alive and you're not alone at all :)
We 're all waiting on Edson and Mark to fix this for us.
Guvnor and droolsjbpm-tools (=eclipse plugin) are also broken meanwhile.

The root of the problem is that both Mark and Edson were working on big changes when the clearly announced split-up had to be executed.
The unfinished problems of those 2 big changes multiplied against each other and they 've been working on getting them fixed in the last few weeks.

Because the split-up renamed a lot of artefacts etc, it's not practical to use guvnor/droolsjbpm-tool on the latest working snapshots.

Since recently, drools-core is testing successfully, but drools-compiler isn't, so only the former is deployed, so this is also annoying,
I am investigating that part:

Drools trunk has been unstable from some weeks now. According to Hudson ( https://hudson.jboss.org/hudson/view/Drools%20jBPM/) it has been never built since the codebase was split up. 
I think hudson should be green soon. But you are not the only one waiting for it :)

Just checking in to see if anyone is alive on this list; downloaded a new
drools-core SNAPSHOT today which did not fix the problem.

Best,
