I have a current need for constants, and Mark&#39;s idea would be a partial solution. I can see however a requirement for a constant across all DRLs, whereas I think Mark&#39;s way would require you to initialise the constant in every file in which it is used.<br>

Having MVEL initialisers for variables something I&#39;d like to see happen.<br>
<br>
global Integer i &nbsp;= ... some mvel expresion....;<br>

Would that solve all the needed use cases?<br><font color="#888888">

Basically - request was for constants in DRL (effectively).<br>
<br>
Thoughts? (ping me directly if you have a strong opinion on it).<br>
