[rules-users] NPE on DecisionTable rule

Hey, gang! I have a decision table that generated the following rule: {other rules removed} #From row number: 19 rule "postponePart_19" when PoolInfo(courtLocation == "101") PoolInfo(statusCode >= 0, statusCode <= 2) PoolInfo(numberFta < 1) PoolInfo(numberOfDeferralsPosted < 2) PoolInfo(daysBeforeSummons>= 2, daysBeforeSummons<= 999) then answer.setAnswer(true); end I call these rules with the following code (I build the ruleBase at the beginning in the factory method to be used by everything: StatelessSession session = participantRuleBase.newStatelessSession(); //now create some test data PoolInfo pool = part.getActivePool(); BooleanAnswer answer = new BooleanAnswer(); Object[] rules = new Object[]{pool, answer}; session.execute(rules); return answer.isTrue(); BooleanAnswer is simply a convenience object I created to store the answer from the rules. (If anyone has a better way to do this, please let me know.) I got the following stack trace: java.lang.NullPointerException at com.acs.gs.juror.bo.Rule_postponePart_19_0.consequence(Rule_postponePart_19_ 0.java:6) at com.acs.gs.juror.bo.Rule_postponePart_19_0ConsequenceInvoker.evaluate(Rule_p ostponePart_19_0ConsequenceInvoker.java:20) at org.drools.common.DefaultAgenda.fireActivation(DefaultAgenda.java:545) at org.drools.common.DefaultAgenda.fireNextItem(DefaultAgenda.java:509) at org.drools.common.AbstractWorkingMemory.fireAllRules(AbstractWorkingMemory.j ava:430) at org.drools.common.AbstractWorkingMemory.fireAllRules(AbstractWorkingMemory.j ava:402) at org.drools.reteoo.ReteooStatelessSession.execute(ReteooStatelessSession.java :128) I'm a newbie and have no idea what to do next.
