I'm trying to add rules after the Process (workflow) started. That works, but I wanted the rules to access database data using hibernate. So I created a global object to store my EntityManager (I'm using SEAM; it's like a Session object). The problem is that when I add the KnowledgePackage with the rule that uses the EntityManager, an exception is thrown because the global is not set. BUT, if I try to set the global var, I get an exception saying it does not exist. Do you have any idea? I've seen that when I add the KnowledgePackage to the StatefullKnowledgeSession the rules are fired, and then I get the exception. Is there a way to NOT fire the rules after inserting the packages? -- View this message in context: http://drools-java-rules-engine.46999.n3.nabble.com/AddKnowledgePackage-w...
