Re: [rules-users] KnowledgeAgent, change-set and BRL

Hi Esteban, Thank you for your fast answer! I am planning to integrate the Drools Eclipse plugin into an RCP application (that will be used to create rules, but not only). Maybe I am wrong but I would like to avoid using Guvnor that seems to be complicated from a deployment point of view (an additional server into our architecture). That's why I planned to build the KnowledgeBase (based on the files generated by the Drools Eclipse plugin in my application) and to fire the rules using the API. I have the impression (but maybe it is just a consequence of my inexperience) that Drools' API lacks some kind of "put the pieces together" feature that would ease the KnowledgeBase building. Something like a KnowledgeAgent that would take a directory as input, build DRLs from BRLs + drools packages (expected next to BRLs), etc... I also have the impression that the directory layout and file extensions could be "enforced" (a bit like javac that expects .java files located in directories corresponding to packages). There seems to be conventions like that in Guvnor ("sub-directories" in packages containing technical rules, business rules, dsls... rule "inheritance" from a parent package to sub-package, and useful things like that) but they do not seem to have any equivalent in the Drools' Core API. And that's exactly where I am :-). Anyway, I have tried adding the "drools.package" as a DRL into the change-set... : <add> <resource source="classpath:misc/drools.package" type="DRL" /> <resource source="classpath:misc/KBuilder_Test.brl" type="BRL" /> </add> ...but it does not work (I still get the "KnowledgeAgent has KnowledgeBuilder errors object=Unable to resolve ObjectType..." error).
