OK, I don't get the error if I use a RFM file instead of a RF file - assuming this to be correct I've changed the wiki entry.

I've also updated the wiki to show how to execute a RuleFlow - not difficult now I know how, but since I spent a while figuring it out thought it worth a mention.

FYI, I have also successfully added the plugin to IBM RAD7 and conducted a few preliminary checks (nice - I can emphasis the "I" in IDE for my current project at work).

Subject:        4.0.0-M2: RuleFlow "CannotResolveClassException" error

Hi,

I added the Eclipse 4.0.0-M2 plugin and created an example project; changing the class path to reference core-4.0.0-M2, compiler-4.0.0-M2 and dependencies.

I modified the example to include Ruleflow based upon the wiki entry for 4.0.0-M2 and created a simple RuleFlow with two RuleGroups ("one" and "two") one for each rule in the Sample.drl.

I also modified the DRL to include Rule-Group attributes ("one" and "two"). Unfortunately when running within Eclipse I received the following error:-

com.thoughtworks.xstream.alias.CannotResolveClassException: org.drools.eclipse.flow.ruleflow.core.RuleFlowProcessWrapper : org.drools.eclipse.flow.ruleflow.core.RuleFlowProcessWrapper

Suspecting I've missed something obvious can you advise?

With kind regards,
