There's probably an easy explanation for this. I was wondering about why functions inside of rule files can't access globals?
 
For example, I have a log4j logger that I pass into my rule files via a global.  The logger should never be a part of working memory. It's just there to capture valuable feedback.
 
But I can't do this:
 
global Logger log;
 
function void foo(String cond)
{
   if (cond == "error")
       log.error("I saw an error");
}
 
Because the compiler says that in the function it can't resolve 'log'.
