my mistake, you should be able to call it, there are a fair few integration tests that cover that (Mark tells me). On 4/4/06, Michael Neale [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: When in the when (he heee) do you want to call it? The only places are in an eval, or predicate or return value... I am not

OK, modified the function to read function boolean doSomething(String s) { System.out.println(s); return true; } and the .dsl file to read eval(doSomething({s}) == true); but we get org.drools.rule.InvalidRulePackage: Rule Compilation error The method eval(boolean) is undefined for

should just be eval(doSomething()) as long as doSomething returns true, should be OK. On 4/4/06, Paul Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: OK, modified the function to read function boolean doSomething(String s) { System.out.println(s); return true; } and the .dsl file to read

no thats OK. Perhaps you might want to write it up on the wiki ??? ;) Yes, re my previous email, if there is a need to put it on the LHS and the RHS, on the LHS an extra expression will be needed to wrap the eval() around it. On 4/4/06, Paul Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I've worked it out.
