[rules-users] Run Drool Application From Command Prompt

Hi 

you r right, When I run the application (integrated with OFBiz) from 
command prompt  I get the NPE: in line

getClass().getClassLoader().loadClass( 
"org.eclipse.jdt.internal.compiler.Compiler" );

When I run the application (ofcourse integrated with OFBiz)  from eclipse 
I don't get NPE exception.


In ofbiz we have a batch file named startofbiz.bat to run the application, 
inside this I configured the classpath by this


set VMARGS=-Xbootclasspath/p:applications\order\lib\antlr-runtime.jar
set VMARGS=-Xbootclasspath/p:applications\order\lib\drools-api.jar 
%VMARGS%
set VMARGS=-Xbootclasspath/p:applications\order\lib\drools-compiler.jar 
%VMARGS%
set VMARGS=-Xbootclasspath/p:applications\order\lib\drools-core.jar 
%VMARGS%
set 
VMARGS=-Xbootclasspath/p:applications\order\lib\drools-decisiontables.jar 
%VMARGS%
set VMARGS=-Xbootclasspath/p:applications\order\lib\drools-jsr94.jar 
%VMARGS%
set VMARGS=-Xbootclasspath/p:applications\order\lib\drools-templates.jar 
%VMARGS%
set VMARGS=-Xbootclasspath/p:applications\order\lib\joda-time.jar %VMARGS%
set VMARGS=-Xbootclasspath/p:applications\order\lib\jsr94.jar %VMARGS%
set VMARGS=-Xbootclasspath/p:applications\order\lib\jxl.jar %VMARGS%
set VMARGS=-Xbootclasspath/p:applications\order\lib\mvel2.jar %VMARGS%
set 
VMARGS=-Xbootclasspath/p:applications\order\lib\org.eclipse.jdt.core_3.4.4.v_894_R34x.jar 
%VMARGS%
set VMARGS=-Xbootclasspath/p:applications\order\lib\xpp3.jar %VMARGS%
set VMARGS=-Xbootclasspath/p:applications\order\lib\xpp3_min.jar %VMARGS%
set VMARGS=-Xbootclasspath/p:applications\order\lib\xstream.jar %VMARGS%



If i don't do this I get the class not found exception

Re: [rules-users] Run Drool Application From Command Prompt







It's unclear from your post when you get the NPE: from the command line, 
from eclipse, or when integrated with OFBiz. (I assume you're referring to 
http://ofbiz.apache.org/)

It's undoubtedly a classpath issue.  Just peek at the source a bit.  I'm 
not sure what version you're using, but if you look at the source in the 
svn repo you'll see that line 92 of JavaDialectConfiguration is this:

getClass().getClassLoader().loadClass( 
"org.eclipse.jdt.internal.compiler.Compiler" );

See the javadoc for Class.getClassLoader() that says "Returns the class 
loader for the class. Some implementations may use null to represent the 
bootstrap class loader. This method will return null in such 
implementations if this class was loaded by the bootstrap class loader."

So, it looks probable that in the environment that's having problems, the 
JavaDialectConfiguration class is loaded by the bootstrap classloader. 
What is the VM implementation you're using?

It might be best if Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader() was 
used instead of getClass().getClassLoader() in JavaDialectConfiguration 
and elsewhere.  Devs, have an opinion on that?
