[rules-users] Compatibility of Rule Flows from 4.0.7 to 5.0.0

[Vikrant Yagnick]

Hi All,

I wanted to know if RuleFlows made using the Eclipse 4.0.7 RuleFlow Builder will work with 5.0.0.  When, I try to upload a 4.0.7 ruleflow into Guvnor, I get a NullPointerException and before that the following:

Cannot find the declaration of element 'org.drools.ruleflow.core.impl.RuleFlowProcessImpl'.

I checked the 5.0.0M1 jars for drools-core, and this class seems to have been removed from there. Also, after installing the 5.0.0 plug-in into Eclipse, my rule-flow nodes have all gone.


Also, this may be a minor bug but it says(both in the docs and the BRMS Guvnor M1 Release):
"Ruleflows allow flow control between rules. The eclipse plugin provides a graphical editor. Upload ruleflow .rf files for inclusion in this package.":

Should the .rf say .rfm ?

Cheers,
Vikrant
