Just a note about URLs. URLs will automatically do base 64 encoding, which primarily means that all spaces are replaced with %20%. If you are using a URL to represent a file, make sure you test it with a file that has spaces somewhere in the path. I just learned this the hard way. You may need to convert your URL to a URI.

I followed your advice and created URLs for my .drl and .dsl files. Then I created a new URLClassLoader instance with these two URLs. Finally I assigned this class loader to my packager builder using: myPackageBuilder.getPackageBuilderConfiguration().setClassLoader(myURLClassL oader); Absolute path names seem to be Ok, as long as one uses "file:" as a prefix to the URL string. I plan to use a config file to specify the locations of my rule files (dsl and drl). The location of the config file itself will then be defined by a command line argument.
