[rules-users] Having problems with traits in 5.4.0beta2

[Greg Barton]

It's not, but can easily be.  I just tried that, though, and the same exception happened.

DRL attached.  It's an old attempt to update the classic monkeys and bananas example to make it a bit more interesting: wandering monkeys, stacking blocks, a bit of world physics, stuff like that.  I haven't touched it for several years and wanted to update it with new drools features for a presentation I'm doing on Tuesday.  I was able to use the new parser features to eliminate a ton of evals, and would like to put traits and propSpecific features in. 

And just to confuse things a bit I have a question about propSpecific. :)  Is it possible to annotate a method to indicate that it changes properties on a different object type other than itself?  Take the "monkey_finds_block" rule as an example.  The Monkey.setHolding() method modifies the thing that's being held.  It would be great if I could annotate  Monkey.setHolding() to indicate that it not only modifies Monkey.holding, but also Entity.location and Entity.holds.
