[rules-users] Re: JUnit and classpath

Thanks. I remain unable to use JUnit. I have the code and several traces below and have attached them as files in case that is more readable. The behavior, to summarize, is that if I add nothing to the JUnit classpath OR if I add the full org.drools.eclipse_4.0.3.jar to the classpath, I get an error instantiating the package builder, AFTER successfully instantiating a configuration. If I use my own minimal drools plugin, I get an error instantiating the configuration itself. These lines are clearly marked in the code below, and the respective traces are below the code. The minimal plugin works completely in my RCP, which uses essentially identical code to access Drools. It includes * drools-core - the rule engine itself. MVEL included just in case (because of the error I was misinterpreting) * optional packages: o xpp3-1.1.3.4.O, xstream-1.2.2 - for audit feature * drools-compiler - the rule compiler itself. * antlr3-runtime-3.0 * eclipse-jdt-core-3.2.3.v_686_R32x - to compile with eclipse I don't really need JUnit to work against this minimal plugin, and I think when I add nothing to the JUnit classpath that JUnit already sees org.drools.eclipse_4.0.3.jar. In case the files are stripped, here are the contents. Code followed by traces. I appreciate Drools - it is terrific. Thank you for any assistance you can provide to help me with this problem. - Mike Dean package droolsRules.tests; import java.io.File; import java.io.FileReader; import java.io.InputStreamReader; import java.io.Reader; import org.drools.RuleBase; import org.drools.RuleBaseFactory; import org.drools.compiler.PackageBuilder; import org.drools.compiler.PackageBuilderConfiguration; import org.drools.rule.Package; import org.drools.rule.builder.dialect.java.JavaDialectConfiguration; import org.junit.AfterClass; import org.junit.BeforeClass; import org.junit.runner.RunWith; import org.junit.runners.Suite; import org.junit.runners.Suite.SuiteClasses; /** * This suite is the place to add Drools tests. * * @author J.

This crash occurs before any effort is made to load a DRL, etc. I get the same identical trace if I add org.drools.eclipse_4.0.3.jar to the classpath, which makes sense to me because this jar is in my IDE environment and should be visible to JUnit.
