[rules-users] ClassNotFound exception running brms example (newbie)

[Martin Fuzzey]

Hi,

I am trying to run the insurance example with the brms
after replacing the client mvel jar with the one used by the brms web
app as mentionned on this list I get this exeception (full stacktrace below)

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:
org.drools.rule.builder.dialect.mvel.MVELDialect$ModifyInterceptor

adding the drools-compiler-4.0.1.jar to the client classpath fixes this
but I thought the rules were supposed to be compiled by the brms. Indeed
the documentation says :

The rule agent is a component which is embedded in the core runtime of
the rules engine. To use this, you don't need any extra components. In
fact, if you are using the BRMS, your application should only need to
include the drools-core.jar in its classpath, and no other rules
specific dependencies.

so am I misunderstanding something or is this a bug?

Thanks,

Martin Fuzzey
