Hello Eugeny, Not sure if this is the recommended way, but I did something similar using the classes in the org.drools.lang.descr package. You can create a PackageDescr from your custom objects and then call PackageBuilder.addPackage(PackageDescr) and PackageBuilder.getPackage() to get an org.drools.rule.Package. I couldn't find any documentation on the org.drools.lang.descr package (javadoc is pretty minimal as well), but you should be able to work out what to do, at least for the basic stuff. Best wishes, Dean.

Or do I miss something? If you could provide some examples of what you did find, or somebody of developers could tell is it right way to do things I described earlier?

I assume I need to compile that Package object somehow? Could somebody please point me to the right way in getting solid knowledge of how can I build custom package descriptor w/o any DRL/XML - but from my custom rule descriptors/storage? Thank you in advance!
