Hi folks, The following import line makes all of the functions in that class available from ctrl-space for rules marked with both Mvel and Java (and not specified) dialects import function bnz.btt.mylend.common.model.utils.DecisionHelper.*; It compiles fine, and runs fine from any class _not_ marked as dialect "mvel" However when I actually execute any of those functions from a rule marked with dialect "mvel" the following occurs: (In this example I'm calling from the DecisionHelper the static method createSystemCreditDecisionReason) ___________________________________ org.drools.runtime.rule.ConsequenceException: rule: CAP 06 Rule at org.drools.runtime.rule.impl.DefaultConsequenceExceptionHandler.handleException( DefaultConsequenceExceptionHandler.java:23) at org.drools.common.DefaultAgenda.fireActivation( DefaultAgenda.java:981) at org.drools.common.DefaultAgenda.fireNextItem( DefaultAgenda.java:918) at org.drools.common.DefaultAgenda.fireAllRules( DefaultAgenda.java:1130) at org.drools.common.AbstractWorkingMemory.fireAllRules( AbstractWorkingMemory.java:740) at org.drools.common.AbstractWorkingMemory.fireAllRules( AbstractWorkingMemory.java:706) at org.drools.impl.StatefulKnowledgeSessionImpl.fireAllRules( StatefulKnowledgeSessionImpl.java:200) at bnz.btt.mylend.rules.test.MyLendingRulesTest.main( MyLendingRulesTest.java:83) Caused by: [Error: unable to access property (null parent): createSystemCreditDecisionReason] [Near : {...

So: Should I JIRA this, or have I just done something wrong? Thanks!
