[Geoffrey De Smet (JIRA)]

Decision tables should fail fast if the keyword is not correct and not presume that anything that starts with an "N" (including "NOLOOP") means "NAME"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBRULES-2582
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBRULES-2582
             Project: Drools
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
          Components: drools-decisiontables
    Affects Versions: 5.1.0.M2
            Reporter: Geoffrey De Smet
            Assignee: Mark Proctor
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: FUTURE


See org.drools.decisiontable.parser.ActionType#addNewActionType

NO-LOOP triggers no loop
NAME triggers name
NNN triggers name => should fail fast with an clear error message
NOLOOP triggers name => should fail fast with an clear error message

For backwards compatibilty we can allow trim().equals("N") to keep triggering name, but it should fail-fast on NNN etc.

End-users don't edit those parts of the spreadsheet, only end-developers do: they'd rather see a clear error message than unexpected behavior.
