Michael Neale commented on JBRULES-1065:
----------------------------------------

ok there are 2 ways (this isn't a bug technically): 

You can do $record : Record( abc == $record.xyz)

is that close enough?

> I've read in the 4.0 features list where implicit binding for value expressions will be available in the 4.0 release.  I've downloaded 4.0GA and still getting the compiler error.  We have a need for the following and wondering if I'm misunderstanding the functionality:
> Fact/bean object code:
> public class Record {
> private String abc;
> private String xyz;
> public String getAbc()...
> public String getXyz()...
> ...
> }
> DRL code:
> rule "..."
>   when
>     $record : Record ( abc == xyz)
>   then
>     ....
> end
> The PackageBuilder can not resolve the "xyz"
> I understand we can define the Record alias and then reference xyz using the alias (see example below) but it would be asking too much for our business users.
> rule "..."
>   when
>     r: Record ( )
>     $record : Record ( abc == r.xyz)
>   then
>     ....
> end
> Any feedback with this is greatly appreciated!!!
