[rules-users] Minor Issue in writing DSL

[Edson Tirelli]

   Saleem,

   For sure, your mapping must have some typo or mistake. A rule like this
works and is correct:

rule XYZ
when
    ObjectA( application==true || banker==true || officer==true )
then
  // do something
end

    Drools does NOT inspect object fields... only public methods.

    If you are using a DSL, make sure your "drl" file is named "dslr" (this
is new in 4.0), so when you open it in eclipse, you have a tab that shows
you the result of the DSL template processing. This way you will be able to
see any eventual mapping mistake.

>    To map that as a DSL, just follow your usual procedure and syntax.
