Mark Proctor commented on JBRULES-3095:
---------------------------------------

at the moment it is unlikely this will get fixed. The work around is to register an MVEL data convert for Pateint and Strings.

> There is a different behavior caused by what I think is an MVEL regretion in the version that it's being used in 5.3.0.SNAPSHOT. 
> Patient( groupName == "ceftazidime susc islt" ||  groupName == "ceftfsdfsazidime susc islt") // this doesn't work
> and 
> Patient( groupName == "ceftazidime susc islt") // This works!!
> The field groupName is an Object that overrides the method equals following the java convention for comparing objects.
> I'm attaching an isolated unit test showing this problem.
