I am sending a batchexecution command to a drools server: 8<... MyBean mb = new MyBean(); List<Command> cmds = new ArrayList<Command>(); InsertObjectCommand insertCmd = (InsertObjectCommand) CommandFactory.newInsert(mb); insertCmd.setOutIdentifier("inserter"); insertCmd.setEntryPoint("Default"); cmds.add(insertCmd); FireAllRulesCommand fireAllRulesCommand = new FireAllRulesCommand(); cmds.add(fireAllRulesCommand); BatchExecutionCommand command = CommandFactory.newBatchExecution(cmds,"ksession1"); String xml BatchExecutionHelper.newXstreammarshaller().toXML(command); 8<... The xml created by that last line contains A LOT of logging information and includes characters that seem to be invalid. (drools server throws a "ConvertsionException, Invalid character reference: null character not allowed in XML content" when it reads the XML) Is there a way to tell the BatchExecutionHelper NOT not to include that logger information? ps. I tried things like turning off the root logger programmatically before calling. Also, I tried setting a global parameter "logger" to a null object (I saw that somewhere) but that didn't work either. commands.add(CommandFactory.newSetGlobal("logger", null)); Thanks for any insight. -J -- View this message in context: http://drools.46999.n3.nabble.com/Can-you-remove-logging-information-from...
