[rules-users] Type Declaration upgrade

Hi. I have such declaration of type declare Contact firstName : String end then I want to add new property to this type. so the next version is declare Contact firstName : String newField : String end this type declaration is in separate drl file. then I add this new type to current KnowledgeBase. but when I execute knowledgeBase.getFactType("test.package", "Contact"); I get old version of Contact. During debugging I found the place where is should be upgraded in the KnowledgeBase. org.drools.common.AbstractRuleBase.mergePackage there is // merge the type declarations if ( newPkg.getTypeDeclarations() != null ) { // add type declarations for ( TypeDeclaration type : newPkg.getTypeDeclarations().values() ) { // @TODO should we allow overrides? only if the class is not in use. if ( !pkg.getTypeDeclarations().containsKey( type.getTypeName() ) ) { // add to package list of type declarations pkg.addTypeDeclaration( type ); } } } so according this comments it's not possible to upgrade Type on the fly. Am I missing something? Does someone had such problems or know the workaround.
