Hi,

I have {Rule1.drl,Rule2,drl,Rule3.brl}

Both the .drl rules run correctly but the .brl does not load and gives me the following error

Exception in thread "main" org.drools.rule.InvalidRulePackage: [1,0]: unknown:1:0 mismatched token: [@0,0:0='<',<79>,1:0];

      at org.drools.rule.Package.checkValidity(Package.java:424)

      at org.drools.common.AbstractRuleBase.addPackage(AbstractRuleBase.java:394)

      at com.org.RuleRunner.loadRules(RuleRunner.java:45)        

      at com.org.RuleRunner.runStatelessRules(RuleRunner.java:79)

      at com.org.RulesTest.main(RulesTest.java:40)

 

I am loading my rules as follows:

 

    private RuleBase loadRules(String[]  rules) throws Exception{

   

          PackageBuilder builder = new PackageBuilder();

         

          for ( int i = 0; i < rules.length; i++ ) {

              String rulesFiles = rules[i];

              //Check the type of rule file, then load it

              System.out.println("loading rule file : "+rulesFiles);

              loadRuleFile(rulesFiles,builder);

             

          }

          Package pkg = builder.getPackage();

          RuleBase localRuleBase = RuleBaseFactory.newRuleBase();

          localRuleBase.addPackage( pkg );   

        

          return localRuleBase;

    }

 

    private void loadRuleFile(String rulesFiles,PackageBuilder addRulesToThisPackage ) throws DroolsParserException, IOException{

        Reader source = new InputStreamReader( RuleRunner.class.getResourceAsStream(rulesFiles) );

        //Load the rules , no DSL

        addRulesToThisPackage.addPackageFromDrl(source); // is this wrong??? Is there another method that I should       

                                                            be using???

       

       

    }

The above code is where I get the error.

Is there some other way to load .brl and .drl files?? We cannot do it together??

I could not find any help on;line on loading and running .brl files.

 

Please help.

Thank you.
