hi smitha,
how do you know that setColor() is not getting called ?. Is it because you
have a break point inside this method.
Let me try this experiment and get back to you about whether it is working
for me or not. Also, which version of
drools are you using ?

Hi Krishnan,
I need the class itself to be global as I might have to access other
functions of it as I go along in the effort.
I cannot seem to be able to call the methods of this global class. I have
also added a snippet of the code.
Thanks
Smitha
Here is my drl
drl=
package test.tools.rulesengine
import test.tools.rulesengine.Utilities;
global test.tools.rulesengine.Utilities util;
rule "Rule1"
when
$Position1 : PosReport()
eval($Position1.getName() == "POS_0_1")
then
util.setColor($Position1, "red");
end
try {
builder.addPackageFromDrl(new StringReader( drl) );
if(firstCall){
ruleBase = RuleBaseFactory.newRuleBase();
ruleBase.addPackage( builder.getPackage() );
workingMemory = ruleBase.newWorkingMemory();
Utilities util = new Utilities();
workingMemory.setGlobal("util", util);
firstCall = false;
}else
ruleBase.addPackage( builder.getPackage() );
//workingMemory = ruleBase.newWorkingMemory();
} catch (DroolsParserException e1) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e1.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e1) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e1.printStackTrace();
} catch (Exception e1) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e1.printStackTrace();
}

Hi Smitha,
They way I understand, in the then clause you would like to call a static
function from some class. So, then you can add that to the import and access
it directly. It does not have to be global. However, if for some reason you
do need to add it as a global,, let me know.
send that when part of the rule again.
