[rules-users] Object Referencing Error

In fact in your case you when condition doesn't make any sense - B will never equal the empty string as B isn't a string.
You probable want the following:
rule "foo"
when
$a :A(Type == "Prod" , objectB == null)
then
B bobject = new B();
bobject.setType("Prod");
bobject.setId($a.getNumber().getId());
modify($a) {
setObjectB(bobject);
};
end
This rule only executes when objectB is null, this means you won't get into the loop as once you have created objectB the rule won't evaluate to true again.

Yes, your rule entered in an infinite loop because when every time you insert/modify/retract a Fact, rules are reevaluated to check if the insertion/modification/retraction generates activations or not. In your case, your rule is being reevaluated every time you update your $a object, the evaluation ends firing the rule, and this starts an endless loop.
If you only have this behavior with this rule, you can consider using the "no-loop" attribute. If your problem is multiple rules being re executed (and you don't wont that) you can use "lock-on-active" attribute. Try to read the documentation about these attributes for further information.
It is very important for the people new in drools to understand the life cycle of a rule.
Best,

Hi,
I tried what you said but program goes into an infinite loop.
It does not break out of the when loop only.
I did exactly as you mentioned.
In the test information I put in a.type = "Prod"
And a.bObject(new B());
Any idea whats wrong??
Thanks,
M

You can't modify bobject, becuase it doesn't exist inside the session. You
just created it a few lines above. Maybe you need an insert() or maybe you
need the bobject reference from the LHS. Something like this:
*rule* "prod"
*when*
$a :A(Type == "Prod" , objectB != "")
*then*
B bobject = *new* B();
$a.getObjectB().setType( "Prod" );
$a.getObjectB().setId($a.getNumber().getId());
*update*($a);
* end*
Note that you need to update $a and not B, because A is the inserted Fact in
your session.
