Drools doesn't "use" quartz scheduler. What we do allow is a quartz
calender to be used. We have our own calendar interface, but provide an
adapter so our scheduler can work with a quartz calendar.

Lazy (Just-In-Time) Loading of Facts
by danny.robinson
I'm new to Drools, and really need to know if the engine can support lazy
loading of fact objects using declared types. Maybe I'm coming at this
wrong, but I want to avoid retrieval for attributes that are not referenced
during rule execution, and only retrieve attributes as the first time they
are used in the current evaluation as some objects could come from database
or other systems.
In coding terms:
if x==false && y==true
then, I should never need to retrieve 'y'.
In addition, I cannot use pojo's at design time, as my data structures are
defined by the business and loaded at runtime, so I tried looking at
declared types, but I'm not certain these will support lazy loading.
Thanks,
Danny

Out of Memory Exception While Running Rule
by Satyendra Sharma
I uploaded a decision table with 2200 rules in a package and when I tried to
build the package it throws Exception : "java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen
space"
while its working fine with 1200 rules.
Heap size is set to max 1536 (as JBoss in my pc is not accepting more than
that size).
Please let me know how I deal with this error at the time of building
package, as my requirement is to have around 13000 rules in a single
package.

Need Drools 5.1 in .NET
by yashgt
Hi,
We are trying to use the Drools 5.1 engine in a .NET application and hence
have been trying to convert the JAR files to DLLs. We use IKVM 0.46.* for
the conversion.
We have added all the JARs from the drools 5.1 package to the CLASSPATH. We
run the command:
ikvmc -target:library drools-api-5.1.1.jar
The output we get is similar to:
Note IKVMC0002: output file is "drools-api-5.1.1.dll"
Warning IKVMC0100: class "org.quartz.Calendar" not found
Warning IKVMC0111: emitted java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError in
"org.drools.runtime
.help.QuartzHelper$QuartzCalendarAdapter.isTimeIncluded(J)Z"
Warning IKVMC0100: class "com.sun.tools.xjc.Options" not found
Warning IKVMC0105: unable to compile class
"org.drools.osgi.api.Activator$Drools
("org.quartz.Calendar")
Warning IKVMC0100: class "com.thoughtworks.xstream.XStream" not found
ServiceTracker"
(missing class "org.osgi.util.tracker.ServiceTrackerCustomizer")
Warning IKVMC0105: unable to compile class "org.drools.osgi.api.Activator"
(missing class "org.osgi.framework.BundleActivator")
Warning IKVMC0100: class "org.osgi.framework.BundleContext" not found
Warning IKVMC0100: class "org.osgi.framework.ServiceReference" not found
Warning IKVMC0100: class "org.drools.osgi.api.Activator" not found
Warning IKVMC0111: emitted java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError in
"org.drools.osgi.ap
i.Activator$BundleContextInstantiator.call()Ljava.lang.Object;"
("org.osgi.framework.BundleContext")
We have done the above process for all the JAR files in the drools folder.
The DLLs do get created and we are able to compile our .NET application to
use the classes. But during execution at:
KnowledgeBuilder kbuilder = KnowledgeBuilderFactory.newKnowledgeBuilder();
We get the exception that says:
- IllegalArgumentException : Unable to instantiate service for Class
'org.drools.builder.KnowledgeBuilderFactoryService"
- ClassNotFoundException:
org.drools.builder.impl.KnowledgeBuilderFactoryServiceImpl
The jar files are already in the CLASSPATH when we run the .NET app .
I am not sure whether these errors are due to the Warnings we see during
conversion.
If anyone has been successful in obtaining a DLL from drools 5.1, kindly let
me know the steps.
Thanks and regards,
Yash

Exception Handling in the rule
by sdinoo
Hi,
In my when clause I have an eval statement like this
eval((ClaimsHistoryHelper.getClaimDrug(drugRefNo)).getDrugName())
For some reason, there is no DrugRecord for the given drugRefNo and hence I
get javaNullPointer exceptions
I do want to rule to continue evaluation and not stop with the error and
hence I dont want to handle exception at fireAllRules catch block
How can I handle the exception in the DRL ?

But am still getting the same error ... please help !

Compatibility of serialized KnowledgePackages?
by Ansgar Konermann
Hi all,
does anyone know if KnowledgePackages which have been compiled and
serialized using Drools 5.0.1 can be de-serialized with 5.1.1 or 5.2.0.CR1?
What about the other way round, serializing with a more recent version
and de-serializing with an older version?
Are there any obstacles here due to a change in internal representation
of KnowledgePackages between versions, or is the serialized format
"designed" to be an exchange format even between versions?
Kind regards
Ansgar

OWL and drools expert
by clement.pernot
Hi,
I want to use drools expert with OWL files and embedded this with a program.
Is it possible? If yes, how it's possible? I have search and didn't find
something, if someone can help, I will be grateful.
I know that EulerGUI take OWL files and can compile with drools expert, but
I want to embedded drools expert and OWL files in a program and I think that
it's impossible to make this with EulerGUI.
I don't know if a solution exist for embedded drools expert and OWL files
but a search for it.
Best Regards,
Clément
