Re: [rules-users] Failing serialisation of large rule base

Hi Michal, With regard to point 2, the StackOverflowException was thrown based on standard Java stack size and not from within the DroolsObject stream as I thought. Increasing the stack size allowed me to serialise the full KnowledgeBase with noticable speed results. I am keen to do things 'properly' though so on to point 3.... The method 'createSerializableMarshaller' in MarshallingTest.java takes a KnowledgeBase as parameter. So I create a Marshaller and .marshall the StatefulKnowledgeSession. No problems. Then to unmarshall I create a new Marshaller? but I no longer have the same knowledgeBase and a null pointer exception is thrown when I use marshaller.unmarshall. java.lang.NullPointerException at org.drools.common.ConcurrentNodeMemories.getNodeMemory(ConcurrentNodeMemories.java:69) at org.drools.common.AbstractWorkingMemory.getNodeMemory(AbstractWorkingMemory.java:1534) at org.drools.marshalling.impl.InputMarshaller.readFactHandles(InputMarshaller.java:334) at org.drools.marshalling.impl.InputMarshaller.readSession(InputMarshaller.java:207) at org.drools.marshalling.impl.DefaultMarshaller.unmarshall(DefaultMarshaller.java:75) at org.drools.marshalling.impl.DefaultMarshaller.unmarshall(DefaultMarshaller.java:47) Or am I misunderstanding... should I be able to serialise the Marshaller created in createSerializableMarshaller? This would make sense by the name!! How do I serialise it? DroolsObjectOutputStream? Regards, Jen Michal Bali-2 wrote: > > Hi Jen, > > To answer your 3. point.
