[rules-users] Bug: Shadow facts

Hi, I have an Object 'Configuration' public class BooleanConfiguration { String paramName; Boolean value; Client client; } I asserted this object and the rule was not executing as I expected. I put a break point in the object, and found that it set it correctly but whenenver the rule engine called the get method the vaue of the object was null. I traced this the place where it creates shadows in Rete.java. I had observed a similar behaviour in version 3.1 or 3.6 (if there was a 3.6). it was more prolific then. I have over 50 objects, only this one is giving a problem. I made the class 'final' (This prevents a shadow from being created), and voila my rule worked as expected. Note: None of the otehr objects needed a final, but had comeplex associations. But this particular object does not run, unless declared final. The fact that i have to use 'final' for it to work, seals it for me as a bug. thanks, Arjun
