Hi,

I am running into a strange classloader issue when running test cases in Ant.  Outside of Ant, the test cases and application itself just run fine.  It’s only when I attempt to run the test case from within Ant that I get the error below:

Drools 5.0.1

Ant 1.6

JUnit 4.7

<testcase classname="com.siemens.pl.it.gre.rules.TestJUnit" name="testRule" time="1.75">

</error>

Ant snippet:

<target name="unitTest2">

<junit fork="yes">

<classpath>

<path refid="classpath" />

</classpath>

<formatter type="xml" />

<test name="com.siemens.pl.it.gre.rules.TestJUnit" haltonfailure="yes" outfile="${test.reports.dir}/results">

<formatter type="xml" />

</test>

</junit>

</target>

Turning the “fork” option off has no effect.

Example rule:

package com.siemens.pl.it.rules.test

import com.siemens.pl.it.gre.rules.TestObject;

rule "Is Value 'foo'?"

when

            $testObj : TestObject( value == "foo" )

then

            $testObj.setResult(true);

end

Interestingly, if I fully-qualify the class in LHS like this: com.siemens.pl.it.rules.test.TestObject( value == "foo" ), the test runs just fine though I would prefer not to have to do this in all my rules if at all possible.

Thanks,
