Got that. How do I code the action so it calls the setAnswer() method on my BooleanAnswer object?

This isn't bug, you aren't using drools correctly. Only valid java can be used in an Action. anAnswer:BooleanAnswer is not valid java and shows up in your generated code:
anAnswer: BooleanAnswer.anAnswer.setAnswer(true);;

The problem appears to be that the rule being generated is just flat wrong. I'm starting to think this is a bug in decision tables for 4.0 GA.

 

The following entry:

 

 

 

ACTION

 

anAnswer: BooleanAnswer

 

anAnswer.setAnswer($param);

 

Allowed

 

TRUE

 

 

 

 

 

TRUE

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Generates this rule:

 

rule "postponePart_10"

     

      when

            PoolInfo(courtLocation == "101", statusCode >= 0, statusCode <= 2, numberFta < 1, numberOfDeferralsPosted < 2, daysBeforeSummons>= 1, daysBeforeSummons<= 1)

      then

            anAnswer: BooleanAnswer.anAnswer.setAnswer(true);;

end

 

This doesn't seem right at all. What I'm trying to do is to call the setAnswer method on the object I passed in with:

 

            StatelessSession session = participantRuleBase.newStatelessSession();

           

            //now create some test data

            PoolInfo pool = part.getActivePool();

            BooleanAnswer answer = new BooleanAnswer();

           

            Object[] rules = new Object[]{pool, answer};

            session.execute(rules);

           

            return answer.isTrue();

 

 

Advice?

 

Thanks.

I'm having trouble figuring out the ACTION section of a decision table. Everything else appears to be working.

 

My rules result in a simple True/False condition. To do this in a decision table, I've created a class called BooleanAnswer that looks like:

 

public class BooleanAnswer {

           

            private boolean   answer;

           

           

            /**

             * no-arg constructor

             */

            public BooleanAnswer(){

            }

           

 

            /**

             * create your own default answer

             * @param answer the answer to set

             */

            public BooleanAnswer(boolean answer){

                        setAnswer(answer);

            }

           

 

            /**

             * @return the answer

             */

            public boolean isTrue() {

                        return answer;

            }

           

 

            /**

             * @param answer the answer to set

             */

            public void setAnswer(boolean answer) {

                        this.answer = answer;

            }

}

 

 

Then I create a decision table with the following ACTION in it:

 

ACTION

 

answer: BooleanAnswer

 

answer.setAnswer($param);

 

Allowed

 

TRUE

 

 

 

 

 

 

This generates the following errors:
