I was wondering now if I can achieve the same with the drools rule file.
That's a bit harder, but not that hard.
Look in the Drools Planner manual for "setRuleBase()" (as an alternative to using <scoreDrl>'s in your SolverConfig.xml)
and look in the Drools Expert manual on how to create a RuleBase.

Great, that worked too!

Just for future reference, I used the following tutorial to create a rule base:

http://hydrogen.informatik.tu-cottbus.de/wiki/index.php/How_to_create_and_execute_a_Drools_rulebase

And http://docs.jboss.org/drools/release/5.2.0.Final/drools-planner-docs/html/ch04.html#d0e1566 to set the rule base.

Thank you for the help!

Geoffrey,

Thank you, that worked!

I was wondering now if I can achieve the same with the drools rule file. The method below wouldn't work because it's not me who load the file (I think it's at AbstractSolverConfig.buildRuleBase, which seems to use getResourceAsStream too).

Hi Guilharme,

There's an overloaded method called configure(InputStream in) and configure(Reader reader) too, use either of those instead:

try {
InputStream in = new FileInputStream("/path/to/xml/file/SolverConf.xml");
configurer.configure(in);
} finally {
IOUtils.closeSilently(in);
}

Hi,

I'm trying to load a configuration file (namely SolverConf.xml) into XmlSolver with the code below:

XmlSolverConfigurer configurer = new XmlSolverConfigurer();

configurer.configure(SOLVER_CONFIG);

Solver solver = configurer.buildSolver();

If I bundle SolverConf.xml file with the application .jar file, then using SOLVER_CONFIG as /path/to/xml/file/SolverConf.xml works fine.

But I want to use SolverConf.xml outside the .jar, so I can easiliy edit it, but I don't know what path should I pass to it.

I know it's a Java related question, but I was wondering if anyone had a similar problem when configuring drools planner. (I've asked on stackoverflow, but none of the answers worked for me: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7718807/can-getresourceasstream-find-files-outside-the-jar-file)

(Supposing my .jar is in /some/path and the SolverConf.xml will be on /some/path/conf for example)

Thanks,
