Re: [rules-users] ClassCastException when firing rules

Hi Seema, Your rules look fine, and the reason you see an "eval" in the exception text is that this: inventory.leaseInformation != null Is resolved as an eval. Anyway, drools does *not* use CGLIB. We generate bytecode directly using ASM. No CGLIB in the middle. The problem, whatever it is, is related to the pojo model and any of these frameworks interfering with it. So, if you can create an isolated test case that allow us to reproduce the problem, it will help us understand how can we support your scenario of usage.
