Mark Proctor commented on JBRULES-1165:
---------------------------------------

setGlobal and setGobal resolver is already there, but getGlobal isn't. In general I'm not too happy about people retrieving information from a stateless session, as it is after all stateless. 

I think if we do this it should at least only be on the StatelessSessionResults. The confusion comes because we allow session re-use, including re-use of the GlobalResolver - to save continual re-populating. Also if the user kicks off another exececute(...) those global values could be altered, this is another caveat. There really isn't any clean way of doing this other than adding complexity to make the user specify what globals can be retrieved and cloning them in the session results - which isn't something I think we want to do.

> Most likely an oversight. However, to keep the stateless nature of the API - there isn't another way to do this other then add more methods to the interface, unfortunately.
