>             Project: Drools
>          Issue Type: Bug
>      Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) 
>    Affects Versions: 6.1.0.CR1
>            Reporter: Benoit Voisin
>            Assignee: Mario Fusco
>             Fix For: 6.1.0.Final, 6.2.0.Beta1

> *WARNING : the committed fix does not implement the behavior intended by the title or description : the code now simply ignore without any error the unknown field*
> factType.get(instance, "unknownField") is currently throwing an NPE. This gives improper information to the user/developper.
> I propose that it throws a new UnknownFactFieldException giving improved information giving good hints for debugging or enabling specific exception management.
> See pull request for test-case and proposed fix
