Hello,

I am using Drools 3.0.6. While using a global variable in a function, the compiler complains it cannot resolve the global variable name. Something like below

global
com.sample.ExampleLogger customLogger;
function
void logMessage(String msg){

customLogger.logMessage("Log Message from the function");

}

In the above code, it complains "customLogger cannot be resolved". I am able to refer the global in the consequence of a rule directly. What is the problem using the reference within a function.

On the other hand, i am able to do something like

function void logMessage(ExampleLogger custLogger,String msg){

custLogger.logMessage(msg+

" Accept gloabal as function parameter");

}

and call from the consequence of a rule : logMessage(customLogger); // I am passing the global to the function as an argument and then use it to log a message.

This way is working. But not the first way of using the global in the function.

Any help??

Thanks
