Here is a quick test i was trying to do for calling the dao in LHS but it fails .. what am i missing ..
 
global com.itemfile.item.dao.ItemValidationDao itemValidationDao;

global com.itemfile.rules.ValidationErrorMap errors;

rule "Item should have a valid status"

when

ItemVo( statusCode : itemStatusCode != null)

ItemVo( statusCode == true ) from itemValidationDao.isValidItemStatus(statusCode)

then

errors.addValidationError("nullItemStatusCode","Item Status Code is null");

System.out.println("Item Base Defaults Called" + itemValidationDao.isValidItemStatus(statusCode));

System.out.println("Item Status Code is null");

end

Caused by: org.drools.rule.InvalidRulePackage: unknown:32:28 Unexpected token 'itemValidationDao'

isValidItemStatus ()  method returns a boolean and i need to check if thats true than go to the RHS side ....  somehow it does not recognize itemValidationDao in LHS side .. RHS same call works ...  

 
Can anybody suggest how to call database in LHS ... 

thanks
