Hi, all, I'm new to Drools, and am a bit confused by the compilation error that I'm getting. From the line number, it appears to be in a generated Java file instead of in my rules file, so I'm having a hard time debugging the issue. Here is the full error: Rule Compilation error : [Rule name=Assert Total Accumulator for Order, agendaGroup=init, salience=0, no-loop=false] com/gaiam/gcsi/rules/Rule_Assert_Total_Accumulator_for_Order_0.java (7:429) : Syntax error, insert ";" to complete BlockStatements Here is the rule that's being referred to: rule "Add charge amounts to total." agenda-group "calc_total" when $total : Total() $event : ProgramBillingEvent( $amount : amount) then modify( $total ) { addCharge($event, $amount) } end I'm working from the example modify block discussed in the docs at http://downloads.jboss.com/drools/docs/4.0.7.19894.GA/html/ch02s05.html#d... - I haven't been able to find other documentation referring to this construct. What am I doing wrong? Thanks, Kris _______________________________________________ rules-users mailing list rules-users(a)lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/rules-users

Well, now I feel dumb. :) I finally figured out that I'd actually been looking at the wrong rule. I'm still a bit confused, though - what dictates whether or not a semicolon is required at the end of the line? In looking at a lot of the example code (for example, PetStore.drl) the placement of semicolons seems pretty haphazard, and I haven't been able to find where in the documentation that is covered. Thanks for your help, Kris.
