Support enum fields as drop-downs in BRMS
-----------------------------------------

                 Key: JBRULES-1539
                 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBRULES-1539
             Project: JBoss Drools
          Issue Type: Feature Request
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
          Components: drools-brms
         Environment: n/a
            Reporter: Harlan Iverson
         Assigned To: Mark Proctor
            Priority: Optional

It would be nice if enum [real Java 5+] fields were first class citizens, and the BRMS UI had the same functionality as the BRMS-defined enums described in JBRULES-1090.

For example, if Driver.locationRiskProfile in the insurance example were changed to a RiskLevel enum, the BRMS would use reflection (or similar) to create a drop-down box based on the RiskLevel members.

Another optional extension of that would be the ability to assign displayed text for enums in the same way that JBRULES-1090 describes:

RiskLevel : ['LOW=Low Risk', 'MED=Medium Risk']

where LOW and MED would correspond to enum values.
