Hi there
I have some questions concerning Drools and jBPM integration.
I know there is this wiki page:
http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=JbpmAndDrools
but first it's not really detailed and second does it seem to be outdated.
1) I changed the FireRulesActionHandler from the wiki to reflect the
API-changes, that at least it's compileable. In the jBPM process
definition the rule file is simply passed as parameter like this:
"/Shipper.drl". To which directory does this relative path apply? So
where do I have to deploy this rule file? I tried several locations in
the application server, but even with an absolute path every time
FireRulesActionHandler tries to read the rule it crashes:
ERROR [GraphElement] action threw exception: null
java.lang.NullPointerException
at java.io.Reader.<init>(Unknown Source)
at java.io.InputStreamReader.<init>(Unknown Source)
at
rechnung.kontrolle.FireRulesActionHandler.readRule(FireRulesActionHandler.java:83)
at
rechnung.kontrolle.FireRulesActionHandler.execute(FireRulesActionHandler.java:50)
2) As I understood the example in the wiki you have to create a node
which executes the rule and then a decision-node which routes the
process flow according to the rule results.
Is it possible to do this with just one node?
But perhaps I should ask this at the jBPM forums.
Every help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
