[rules-users] re:Shadow Facts

Sorry - in previous email forgot to include the following code, as the NPE occurs when this routine is called at the addPackage call. private void readDRLintoPackage(String rulesFile) throws DroolsParserException, IOException, Exception { Reader source = new InputStreamReader(RulesEngine.class.getResourceAsStream("/" + rulesFile)); PackageBuilder builder = new PackageBuilder(); builder.addPackageFromDrl(source); Package pkg = builder.getPackage(); rules = RuleBaseFactory.newRuleBase(); rules.addPackage(pkg); }
