[rules-users] FW: Newbie: using a spreadsheet

[Hehl, Thomas]

OK, here's my rules table:

 


RuleTable Court

 


CONDITION

CONDITION

ACTION


singleStatus: SingleParticipantStatus

singleStatus: SingleParticipantStatus

singleStatus: SingleParticipantStatus


statusType

value

singleStatus.setAnswer("$param");

 

And this generates a rule that looks like this, for example:

 

     then singleStatus:
SingleParticipantStatus.singleStatus.setAnswer("statusOnly");;

 

This generates an error b/c it doesn't know how to resolve
SingleParticipantStatus.singleStatus.setAnswer, which is where the error
below is coming from.

 

So I changed the rule table to simply say:

 

setAnswer("$param");

 

Which generates:

 

      then

            singleStatus: SingleParticipantStatus.setAnswer("statusOnly");;

 

Which causes the non-static method error since setAnswer is an instance
method.

 

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

 

Thanks.

I've been following the ExamplePricePolicy example and am attempting to
build my own rules using a spreadsheet.

 

In my spreadsheet rules, I have the following:

 


ACTION


singleStatus: SingleParticipantStatus


singleStatus.setAnswer("$param");

 

This throws:

 

org.drools.rule.InvalidRulePackage: Rule Compilation error
SingleParticipantStatus.singleStatus cannot be resolved

Rule Compilation error SingleParticipantStatus.singleStatus cannot be
resolved

Rule Compilation error SingleParticipantStatus.singleStatus cannot be
resolved

Rule Compilation error SingleParticipantStatus.singleStatus cannot be
resolved

Rule Compilation error SingleParticipantStatus.singleStatus cannot be
resolved

 

When I googled on this error, most of the occurrences appeared to be related
to an import issue, but if I change the third line to:

 

setAnswer("$param");

 

It blows up because it knows that setAnswer is not a static method, which
tends to tell me that it found my class.

 

I think I've parroted the example exactly and so I'm confused as to where to
go with this issue.

 

Thanks!
