5.6.0.CR1 gives a NullPointerException in after evaluator
by abr
Hi everyone,
I tried to switch from 5.5.0.Final to 5.6.0.CR1 and got a null pointer
exception in the evaluation of the after evaluator.
(Exact method is:
/org.drools.base.evaluators.AfterEvaluatorDefinition.AfterEvaluator.evaluate(InternalWorkingMemory,
InternalReadAccessor, InternalFactHandle, InternalReadAccessor,
InternalFactHandle)/ )
When debugging, the exception occurs at the very first line of the method,
in:
/ if ( extractor1.isNullValue( workingMemory, handle1.getObject() ) ||
extractor2.isNullValue( workingMemory, handle2.getObject() ) ) {
return false;
}
/
The cause of the exception is that handle1 is null.
The rule where the exception occurs looks like:
/ MyFact(
fromdate before[ 0d ] $min,
( todate == null || todate after[ 0d ] $max ) )
/
When the exception occurs, /MyFact.fromdate/ is not null, /$min/ is not
null, /MyFact.todate/ is null, /$max/ is not null.
In AfterEvaluator.evaluate : /extractor1/ refers to /MyFact.todate/,
/extractor2/ refers to /$max/, /handle1/ is null, /handle2/ refers to the
fact including the attribute to which /$max/ variable is bound to.
Of course, this worked fine in 5.5.0.Final.
I couldn't test this out in Drools 6.0.0.CR5 because I have dependencies to
drools-spring JAR that does not exist anymore in 6.0.0.CR5.
Is it simple to fix this problem?
Thanks in advance.
Best,
Alexis

Incorrect resolution of global symbols in LHS rule constraint (Java dialect)
by mikerod
I upgraded from 5.5.0.Final of Drools (rule engine) to 5.6.0.Final and I am
now seeing errors with globals.
We have rule constraints that access globals in a DRL; like this:
some.classpath.package2.MyType ( global_instance.invoke(this) == true )
I have `some.classpath.package.SomeType global_instance;` declared at the
top of the DRL, but it doesn't seem to be interpeting it as a global in the
rule's restriction.
So, putting this into context within, I have a DRL such as:
package my.package.example;
global some.classpath.package.SomeType global_instance;
****
rule "Example rule"
when
some.classpath.package2.MyType ( global_instance.invoke(this) == true )
then
// do something
end
****
I am getting an error from the package builder originating from the "Example
rule" specifying something like:
"can't find method MyType.global_instance()"
Once, again this did work in 5.5.0.Final, but in 5.6.0.Final I am getting a
failure trying to build the knowledge package.
It looks to me like the `global_instance` symbol is not being recognized as
a global in the DRL and is trying to be
resolved as a method of the MyType class.
So I guess it would be trying to do a
"MyType.global_instance().invoke(this)" or something.
The intent is that `global_instance` will be set for a session with an
immutable function-type of class
(invoke is an instance method though; not static). The rule restriction
uses this function/predicate to determine if some
complex criteria is true for `this` MyType instance.
I would appreciate any insight into what the issue might be. I haven't been
able to find any threads out there on a similar issue.

Inconsistency in Drools' Performance (Version 5.5.0)
by Harpreet Singh
Hi,
I have been trying to measure Drools' 5.5.0 performance for quite some time. I see that Drools' perform inconsistently in terms of CPU time.
Please see the below code (modification of DroolsTest example):
/*Code start*/
public class DroolsTest {
public static final void main(String[] args) {
try {
// load up the knowledge base
KnowledgeBase kbase = readKnowledgeBase();
// go !
for (int i = 0; i < 20; i++) {
Message message = new Message();
message.setMessage("Hello World");
message.setStatus(Message.HELLO);
long startTime = System.nanoTime();
StatefulKnowledgeSession ksession = kbase.newStatefulKnowledgeSession();
FactHandle handle = ksession.insert(message);
ksession.fireAllRules();
ksession.retract(handle);
System.out.println("Time taken is: " + (System.nanoTime()-startTime)/1000);
ksession.dispose();
}
} catch (Throwable t) {
t.printStackTrace();
}
}
private static KnowledgeBase readKnowledgeBase() throws Exception {
KnowledgeBuilder kbuilder = KnowledgeBuilderFactory.newKnowledgeBuilder();
kbuilder.add(ResourceFactory.newClassPathResource("Sample.drl"), ResourceType.DRL);
KnowledgeBuilderErrors errors = kbuilder.getErrors();
if (errors.size() > 0) {
for (KnowledgeBuilderError error: errors) {
System.err.println(error);
}
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Could not parse knowledge.");
}
KnowledgeBase kbase = KnowledgeBaseFactory.newKnowledgeBase();
kbase.addKnowledgePackages(kbuilder.getKnowledgePackages());
return kbase;
}
public static class Message {
public static final int HELLO = 0;
public static final int GOODBYE = 1;
private String message;
private int status;
public String getMessage() {
return this.message;
}
public void setMessage(String message) {
this.message = message;
}
public int getStatus() {
return this.status;
}
public void setStatus(int status) {
this.status = status;
}
}
}
/** Code end**/
I have just added timing code to the DroolsTest.java program (provided by JBoss) and I am using Sample.drl file (provided by JBoss). The rules get executed correctly but the timings that I see are:
Iteration 1: 103753 (we can ignore this as the classes get loaded during the first iteration)
Iteration 2: 861
Iteration 3: 744
Iteration 4: 1350
Iteration 5: 718
Iteration 6: 651
Iteration 7: 661
Iteration 8: 668
Iteration 9: 648
Iteration 10: 3564
Iteration 11: 911
Iteration 12: 689
Iteration 13: 682
Iteration 14: 796
Iteration 15: 4236
Iteration 16: 774
Iteration 17: 772
Iteration 18: 722
Iteration 19: 713
Iteration 20: 697
I profiled it with Yourkit Profiler and the increase in time does not correspond to garbage collection. I also timed individual calls and found out that:
- ksession.insert: takes consistent time
- ksession.fireAllRules: inconsistent
- kbase.newStatefulKnowledgeSession: inconsistent
I see same inconsistency in performance when I integrate Drools with original project (which I can't share here). I also found that this has nothing to do with compiler optimizations.
Why is there inconsistent performance? Is there anything that I am missing?
Thank you.

permgen error for simple rule stress test

Intermittent startup error with Integration Server?
by dunnlow
I'm using the Drools Integration server (5.5) (with a persisted stateful
ksession) and a java client that is sending events via httpclient.
Most of the time, things work fine. Sometimes, when I restart the
integration server, when it comes back up I I start getting messages (all
following msgs to the server fail with a 500 (internal) error):
org.apache.cxf.jaxrs.impl.WebApplicationExceptoinMapper toResponse
WARNING: WebApplicationException has been caught : No converter
specified for class org.drools.command.runtime.BatchExceutionCommandImpl
---- Debugging information ----
version : null
-------------------------------
To fix this problem, I need to:
1) stop the client sending messages to the integration server,
2) restart the integration server
3) once it's up, I send a single message (which is successfully processed)
4) turn the client back on, and everything is just fine.
It appears as if the Integration server doesn't like receiving messages as
it is coming up. Does anyone have any thoughts about what is going on here
and how to mitigate?
Thanks,
-J

Mvel "in" operator and Inline List Question (Elements with range)
by mattmadhavan
Hello,
I see the example mvel "in" operator for the inline array as follows:
surgeryCode in [00, 12, 13, 15, 19, *20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25*, 30, 33, 45,
48, 55, 56, 65, 66, 70, 80, 90, 99]
If you notice above the codes *21 to 25* are contiguous (Range)
Is it possible to specify in the list a 'short hand' notation like 21-25
like as follows:
surgeryCode in [00, 12, 13, 15, 19, 20, *21-25*, 30, 33, 45, 48, 55, 56, 65,
66, 70, 80, 90, 99]
If Drools does not support it, is writing my own Custom Operator is my only
option?
Thanks in advance!
Matt'M
