Re: [rules-users] Use of function in Drools Test Scenario
This means that it cannot find your method. To be able to call a method from within a rule
you will need to import the respective class that has the method and then use an instance
to reference that method with (or just the method without an instance if it is static and
you did static import). Think like a typical java program where you cannot call a method
unless you define the scope or instance to call it with.

Hi,
I am a newbie on Drools, don't mind me asking stupid questions :)
W've started using Drools, first in a Proof-Of-Concept mode for a large
scale project in which we have developers and analysts using Drools. As an
analyst I defined the Rules and Test Scenarios in Guvnor. The developer has
added some functions too in the Repository in the same package as my Rules
and Test Scenarios are. So far so good. However, I encounter problems when
using the functions in my Test Scenario. I receive a:
[Error: no such method or function: timeStringToLong] [Near : {... new
java.util.Date(), "17:00" ....}] ^ [Line: 1, Column: 0]
The first part of the Test Scenario looks like:
GIVEN
insert [Segment] [$seg]
arrivalTime: =timeStringToLong(new java.util.Date(), "17:00")
If I use eval() around the function call or prefix it with the package name
it does not help.
So all this leads to the questions:
- is it possible to use function calls in Test Scenarios?
- what is the format to call functions?
- is there somewhere documentation about input values, formats, etc.
- do I have the fully qualify the Date parameter?
Thanks very much!
Abbo
