[rules-users] Compilation error: "Syntax error, insert "; " to complete BlockStatements "

[Kris Nuttycombe]

Well, now I feel dumb. :) I finally figured out that I'd actually been
looking at the wrong rule. I'm still a bit confused, though - what
dictates whether or not a semicolon is required at the end of the
line? In looking at a lot of the example code (for example,
PetStore.drl) the placement of semicolons seems pretty haphazard, and
I haven't been able to find where in the documentation that is
covered.

Thanks for your help,

Kris.
