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)

org.drools.common.AbstractWorkingMemory.getNodeMemory(AbstractWorkingMemory.java:1534)

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
