Hello Guys, sorry to bother you with this problem, but I'm out of ideas. I'm using Drools in textmining-context and in basic I have a function that checks 2 named entites for equality to ensure that the entities are all different and that the rules do work only on different named entity objects: public static boolean isEqual(Annotation a, Annotation b){ if(a.equals(b)){ return true; } return false; } Sometimes there are conditions that need tests of more than 2 named entites. For this I've written a super method that calls the isEqual method in a loop: public static boolean isEqual(Annotation... a){ ArrayList<Annotation> outLoop = new ArrayList<Annotation>(Arrays.asList(a)); ArrayList<Annotation> inLoop = new ArrayList<Annotation>(Arrays.asList(a)); for (Annotation anno1 : outLoop) { inLoop.remove(anno1); for (Annotation anno2 : inLoop) { if(isEqual(anno1,anno2)){ return true; } } } return false; } My rules could (theoretically) now call the function eval(isEqual($ne1,$ne2)) or eval(isEqual($ne1,$ne2,$ne3) or even eval(isEqual($ne1,$ne2,$ne3,$ne4,$ne5)) and so on. So there starts my problem: Each time I'm getting an ArrayIndexOutOfBounds Exception from the second method that looks like this: java.lang.RuntimeException: cannot invoke method: isEqual ... at java.lang.Thread.dispatchUncaughtException(Thread.java:1888) Caused by: java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 3 at org.mvel2.optimizers.impl.refl.nodes.MethodAccessor.executeAll(MethodAccessor.java:149) at org.mvel2.optimizers.impl.refl.nodes.MethodAccessor.getValue(MethodAccessor.java:48) at org.mvel2.ast.ASTNode.getReducedValueAccelerated(ASTNode.java:108) at org.mvel2.compiler.ExecutableAccessor.getValue(ExecutableAccessor.java:38) ... Could someone explain me what's wrong with my code? Thanks for any help.

Like you wish wolfgang. The complete Rule is: rule "Generate Finding_ConceptId" no-loop when $a1:ODMAnswer( q1:QuestionId, q1.toLowerCase.contains("diagnose") || q1.toLowerCase.contains("indication"), q1.toLowerCase.contains("sections"), a1_begin:begin, label1:ResponseAttribute) $a2:ODMAnswer( ResponseAttribute.contains(label1), QuestionId.contains("sectionheader"), comesBefore($a1,$a2)); $a3:ODMAnswer( q3:QuestionId, !q3.contains("finding.conceptId"), !q3.contains("itemGroup"), !q3.contains("section"), a3_begin:begin, a3_end:end, label2:ResponseAttribute, isInAnnotation($a1,$a3)) $a4:ODMAnswer( q4:QuestionId.contains("finding.conceptId"), a4_begin:begin, comesAfter($a2,$a4), isBetween($a2,$a3,$a4), isInAnnotation($a1,$a4)) not $a5:ODMAnswer( isInAnnotation($a1,$a5), isBigger($a3,$a5), !isEqual($a3,$a4,$a5)) then String questionId = "finding.conceptId"; String attribute = label1 +" "+ label2; int begin = a4_begin; int ende = a3_end; boolean addToIndexes = true; insert(annotate(aJCas, questionId, attribute, begin, ende, addToIndexes)); end The functions are in a seperate FactChecker class, because the "incode-comparison" was too much of a chaos. So I wrote functions which explains themselves what they do: ================================================================== public static boolean isInAnnotation(Annotation a, Annotation b){ if(isNull(a,b)){ return false; } if(b.getBegin() > a.getBegin() && b.getEnd() < a.getEnd()){ return true; } if(a.getBegin() > b.getBegin() && a.getEnd() < b.getEnd()){ return true; } return false; } ================================================================== public static boolean isInAnnotation(Annotation... a){ for (int i = 0; i < a.length; i++){ if(i+1 == a.length){ return false; } if(isInAnnotation(a[i], a[i+1])){ return true; } } return false; } ================================================================== public static boolean comesBefore(Annotation a, Annotation b){ if(isNull(a,b)){ return false; } if(b.getEnd() <= a.getBegin()){ return true; } return false; } ================================================================== public static boolean comesAfter(Annotation a, Annotation b){ if(isNull(a,b)){ return false; } if(a.getEnd() <= b.getBegin()){ return true; } return false; } ================================================================== public static boolean isEqual(Annotation a, Annotation b){ if(isNull(a,b)){ return false; } if(a.equals(b)){ return true; } return false; } ================================================================== public static boolean isEqual(Annotation... a){ ArrayList<Annotation> outLoop = new ArrayList<Annotation>(Arrays.asList(a)); ArrayList<Annotation> inLoop = new ArrayList<Annotation>(Arrays.asList(a)); for (Annotation anno1 : outLoop) { if(anno1 == null){ } inLoop.remove(anno1); for (Annotation anno2 : inLoop) { if(isEqual(anno1,anno2)){ return true; } } } return false; } ================================================================== public static boolean isNull(Annotation... a){ for (Annotation annotation : a) { if(annotation == null){ return true; } } return false; } ================================================================== public static boolean isBigger(Annotation a, Annotation b){ if(isNull(a,b)){ return false; } if(a.getBegin() == b.getBegin() && a.getEnd() < b.getEnd()){ return true; } if(b.getBegin() < a.getBegin() && a.getEnd() == b.getEnd()){ return true; } if(b.getBegin() < a.getBegin() && a.getEnd() < b.getEnd()){ return true; } return false; } ================================================================== public static boolean isBetween(Annotation a, Annotation b, Annotation c){ if(isNull(a,b,c)){ return false; } Annotation min = getMin(a,b); Annotation max = getMax(a,b); if(isOverlapping(a,c) || isOverlapping(b,c)){ return true; } if(c.getBegin() > min.getEnd() && c.getEnd() < max.getBegin()){ return true; } return false; } ================================================================== public static Annotation getMax(Annotation a, Annotation b){ isNull(a,b); if(a.getBegin() >= b.getBegin()){ return a; } return b; } ================================================================== public static Annotation getMin(Annotation a, Annotation b){ isNull(a,b); if(a.getEnd() <= b.getEnd()){ return a; } return b; } ================================================================== I've posted all functions that are used by the rule. Actually it crushes if I use more than 2 statements in the isEqual() call in $a5. It works with !isEqual($a3,$a4) && !isEqual($a3,$a5) && !isEqual($a4,$a5) but not with !isEqual($a3,$a4,$a5). So do you got an idea where the problem comes from?

Experiment 1 Please write isEqualThree for 3 Annotation arguments and use this, just to make sure that these Problems are caused by Drools. (Do NOT rely on overloading, use another name.)

Experiment 2 Using the isEqual as it is now, rewrite the last pattern as: not ( $a5:ODMAnswer( isInAnnotation($a1,$a5), isBigger($a3,$a5) ) and eval( ! isEqual($a3,$a4,$a5) ) )

But that's exactly what java is doing if you say the Arguments are method(X... xs). Java is then generating an array of the type you set and you can work with xs like an normal array.

By the way, seems I get this Error Unable to Analyse Expression isEqual(new Annotation[]{$a3,$a4,$a5}) [Error: could not instantiate class] [Near : {... isEqual(new Annotation[]{$a3,$a4,$a5}) ....}] ^ [Line: 129, Column: 8]

The changed method is: public static boolean isEqual(Annotation[] a){ ArrayList<Annotation> outLoop = new ArrayList<Annotation>(Arrays.asList(a)); ArrayList<Annotation> inLoop = new ArrayList<Annotation>(Arrays.asList(a)); for (Annotation anno1 : outLoop) { inLoop.remove(anno1); for (Annotation anno2 : inLoop) { if(isEqual(anno1,anno2)){ return true; } } } return false; } ----- Ursprüngliche Mail ----- Von: "Wolfgang Laun" <wolfgang.laun(a)gmail.com&gt; An: "Rules Users List" <rules-users(a)lists.jboss.org&gt; Gesendet: Mittwoch, 6.

> Experiment 1 > Please write isEqualThree for 3 Annotation arguments and use this, > just to make sure that these Problems are caused by Drools. (Do NOT > rely on overloading, use another name.) I've created an isEqualThree function public static boolean isEqualThree(Annotation a, Annotation b, Annotation c){ if(isEqual(a,b) || isEqual(b,c) || isEqual(a,c)){ return true; } return false; } By the way, it works also with overloading, I've never had problems with overloading in Drools. And I've tested also with different names, the problem remains, even using different function names. > Experiment 2 > Using the isEqual as it is now, rewrite the last pattern as: > > not ( $a5:ODMAnswer( > isInAnnotation($a1,$a5), > isBigger($a3,$a5) ) > and > eval( ! isEqual($a3,$a4,$a5) ) > ) Your condition works without problems using the isEqualThree function, it works also if I overload the function. It also works if I put the isEqual condition out of the eval, into the object constraints. But if I want to use my primary idea, using different names, public static boolean isEqualMore(Annotation... a) I still get the same error from the isEqualMore function. java.lang.RuntimeException: cannot invoke method: isEqualMore at de.fraunhofer.scai.bio.uima.core.deploy.StatusCallbackListenerImpl.entityProcessComplete(StatusCallbackListenerImpl.java:151) at org.apache.uima.collection.impl.cpm.engine.CPMThreadGroup.notifyListener(CPMThreadGroup.java:103) at org.apache.uima.collection.impl.cpm.engine.CPMThreadGroup.uncaughtException(CPMThreadGroup.java:86) at java.lang.Thread.dispatchUncaughtException(Thread.java:1888) Caused by: java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 3 at org.mvel2.optimizers.impl.refl.nodes.MethodAccessor.executeAll(MethodAccessor.java:149) at org.mvel2.optimizers.impl.refl.nodes.MethodAccessor.getValue(MethodAccessor.java:48) at org.mvel2.ast.ASTNode.getReducedValueAccelerated(ASTNode.java:108) at org.mvel2.compiler.ExecutableAccessor.getValue(ExecutableAccessor.java:38) at org.mvel2.ast.Negation.getReducedValueAccelerated(Negation.java:48) at org.mvel2.MVELRuntime.execute(MVELRuntime.java:85) at org.mvel2.compiler.CompiledExpression.getValue(CompiledExpression.java:123) at org.mvel2.compiler.CompiledExpression.getValue(CompiledExpression.java:116) at org.mvel2.MVEL.executeExpression(MVEL.java:930) at org.drools.rule.constraint.MvelConditionEvaluator.evaluate(MvelConditionEvaluator.java:70) at org.drools.rule.constraint.MvelConditionEvaluator.ensureBranchEvaluation(MvelConditionEvaluator.java:113) at org.drools.rule.constraint.MvelConditionEvaluator.ensureCompleteEvaluation(MvelConditionEvaluator.java:106) at org.drools.rule.constraint.MvelConditionEvaluator.ensureCompleteEvaluation(MvelConditionEvaluator.java:90) at org.drools.rule.constraint.MvelConditionEvaluator.getAnalyzedCondition(MvelConditionEvaluator.java:82) at org.drools.rule.constraint.MvelConstraint.executeJitting(MvelConstraint.java:214) at org.drools.rule.constraint.MvelConstraint.access$000(MvelConstraint.java:41) at org.drools.rule.constraint.MvelConstraint$1.run(MvelConstraint.java:201) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:1146) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:615) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:679) JB ----- Ursprüngliche Mail ----- Von: "Wolfgang Laun" <wolfgang.laun(a)gmail.com&gt; An: "Rules Users List" <rules-users(a)lists.jboss.org&gt; Gesendet: Donnerstag, 7.

The problem is not the loop in isEqualMore. I think the problem is caused by MVEL not handling the signature (Ann...) correctly. @Mario: should MVEL be able to deal with such a function call? -W On 07/03/2013, Bojan Janisch <bojan.janisch(a)scai.fraunhofer.de&gt; wrote: > I've tested all 4 cases.
