I thought App Engine wouldn't work with runtime generated bytecode and had classloader restrictions? Mark A list of the changes that I made to the Drools Core and Drools Util code are below. A lot of these changes are NullPointer checks when reading properties from a file (i.e. things that you might want in the codebase anyway). Notes on the sample I used to try this out are at http://code.google.com/p/red-piranha/wiki/ModifyDroolsRunInGoogleAppEngine The sample (for the moment) is running a pre-built KnowledgeBase within GAE (i.e. no rule compilation, nor any of the advanced features). What is the best way of submitting the actual code changes for review and possible inclusion as part of the Drools source code? A patch against trunk attached to a jira should suffice, don't forget we've moved to GIT.
