Hello Laun,

Thank you for your quick response. This date is a date coming from a DB2 date field and is valid in my incoming data. Frankly, I am with you, why not null versus a silly low date as such, arggggh. But since it is coming in as such do you know of a work around?

Thank so much,
Nancy

Why would you want to test for January 1st in year 1? This is not a
value an object of type java.util.Date can represent. See that type's
javadoc for details, but the epoch begins January 1, 1970.

I have a simple rule where I want to bypass elements that have a low date but
drools seems to be interpreting the date different then I am expecting.
Drools statement and error follows:

ClientSupplement ( dateOfBirth : dateOfBirth != null && != 0001-01-01)

throws error -- Error: [Error: badly formatted number: For input string:
"001-01-01"] [Near : {... 0001-01-01 ....}] ^ [Line: 1, Column: 1]

How do I get drools to understand this low date? I have tried single,
double, and no quotes around the low date and all result in a similiar error
message. Please Help!
