Edson, Mark, AFAIK XmlDumpers's XML is not the same as the internal representation used by Guvnor (that is really only an XStream representation of Guvnor's internal model). I had a look at XmlDumper and it references a schema (that I could not find), but it definitely follows a different mechanism to Guvnor. Am I correct? The user below would need to write an XSLT to transform between the two. Or is the expectation that XML from XmlDumper should be able to be loaded into Guvnor?

We couldn’t find a way (tool) of importing them into Guvnor as BRL file so that we can edit using the designer.**** ** ** We ended up using the DrlParser and XmlDumper to transform them from DRL to BRL. It produces the XML and when we add it to the repository using WebDav, Guvnor lists the files under Business Rule which is perfect. BUT when I try to open it, it throws the following error:**** ** ** com.thoughtworks.xstream.converters.reflection.AbstractReflectionConverter$Unkno **** wnFieldException: No such field org.drools.ide.common.client.modeldriven.brl.Rul**** eModel.rule-attribute**** ---- Debugging information ----**** field : rule-attribute**** class : org.drools.ide.common.client.modeldriven.brl.RuleModel **** required-type : org.drools.ide.common.client.modeldriven.brl.RuleModel **** converter-type : com.thoughtworks.xstream.converters.reflection.ReflectionC**** onverter**** path : /rule/rule-attribute**** version : null**** -------------------------------**** at com.thoughtworks.xstream.converters.reflection.AbstractReflectionConv**** erter.determineType(AbstractReflectionConverter.java:449)**** at com.thoughtworks.xstream.converters.reflection.AbstractReflectionConv**** erter.doUnmarshal(AbstractReflectionConverter.java:290)**** at com.thoughtworks.xstream.converters.reflection.AbstractReflectionConv**** erter.unmarshal(AbstractReflectionConverter.java:230)**** at com.thoughtworks.xstream.core.TreeUnmarshaller.convert(TreeUnmarshall**** er.java:72)**** at com.thoughtworks.xstream.core.AbstractReferenceUnmarshaller.convert(A**** bstractReferenceUnmarshaller.java:65)**** at com.thoughtworks.xstream.core.TreeUnmarshaller.convertAnother(TreeUnm**** arshaller.java:66)**** at com.thoughtworks.xstream.core.TreeUnmarshaller.convertAnother(TreeUnm**** arshaller.java:50)**** at com.thoughtworks.xstream.core.TreeUnmarshaller.start(TreeUnmarshaller**** .java:134)**** at com.thoughtworks.xstream.core.AbstractTreeMarshallingStrategy.unmarsh**** al(AbstractTreeMarshallingStrategy.java:32)**** at com.thoughtworks.xstream.XStream.unmarshal(XStream.java:1035)**** at com.thoughtworks.xstream.XStream.unmarshal(XStream.java:1019)**** at com.thoughtworks.xstream.XStream.fromXML(XStream.java:895)**** at com.thoughtworks.xstream.XStream.fromXML(XStream.java:886)**** at org.drools.ide.common.server.util.BRXMLPersistence.unmarshal(BRXMLPer**** sistence.java:191)**** at org.drools.guvnor.server.contenthandler.drools.BRLContentHandler.retr**** ieveAssetContent(BRLContentHandler.java:41)**** at org.drools.guvnor.server.RepositoryAssetService.handlePackageItem(Rep**** ositoryAssetService.java:132)**** at org.drools.guvnor.server.RepositoryAssetService.loadRuleAsset(Reposit**** oryAssetService.java:118)**** at org.drools.guvnor.server.RepositoryAssetService$Proxy$_$$_WeldClientP**** roxy.loadRuleAsset(RepositoryAssetService$Proxy$_$$_WeldClientProxy.java)*** * at org.drools.guvnor.server.RepositoryServiceServlet.loadRuleAsset(Repos**** itoryServiceServlet.java:403)**** at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method)**** at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.**** java:39)**** at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAcces**** sorImpl.java:25)**** at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:597)**** at com.google.gwt.user.server.rpc.RPC.invokeAndEncodeResponse(RPC.java:5**** 69)**** at com.google.gwt.user.server.rpc.RemoteServiceServlet.processCall(Remot**** eServiceServlet.java:208)**** at com.google.gwt.user.server.rpc.RemoteServiceServlet.processPost(Remot**** eServiceServlet.java:248)**** at com.google.gwt.user.server.rpc.AbstractRemoteServiceServlet.doPost(Ab**** stractRemoteServiceServlet.java:62)**** at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:637)**** at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:717)**** at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(Appl**** icationFilterChain.java:290)**** at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.doFilter(ApplicationF**** ilterChain.java:206)**** at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapperValve.invoke(StandardWrapperV**** alve.java:233)**** at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContextValve.invoke(StandardContextV**** alve.java:191)**** at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardHostValve.invoke(StandardHostValve.j**** ava:127)**** at org.apache.catalina.valves.ErrorReportValve.invoke(ErrorReportValve.j**** ava:102)**** at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardEngineValve.invoke(StandardEngineVal**** ve.java:109)**** at org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteAdapter.service(CoyoteAdapter.jav**** a:293)**** at org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11AprProcessor.process(Http11AprProcesso**** r.java:877)**** at org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11AprProtocol$Http11ConnectionHandler.pr**** ocess(Http11AprProtocol.java:594)**** at org.apache.tomcat.util.net.AprEndpoint$Worker.run(AprEndpoint.java:16**** 75)**** at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:662)**** ** ** ** ** I am able to re-produce the same error when I try to convert the BRL to DRL using BRDRLPersistence and BRXMLPersistence marshalling and unmarshalling.
