"Processing"

Hello,

I am using jBPM 5.1.0.Final to execute some processes.  I started a process 
with parameters where one of the parameters is an ArrayList<?> named 
"itemList".  I'm trying to access the "itemList" from within a rule using the 
following syntax:

when
     $process : WorkflowProcessInstance()
     $a : ArrayList() from ((ArrayList)$process.getVariable("arrayList"))
then
     System.out.println("Size: " + $a.size());

However, the condition never seems to be true when I use an ArrayList (I assume 
the same thing would happen using any object that implements Collection).  I 
have used other singular objects such as String without a problem and read it 
properly from the process in the condition portion.  Additionally, the 
arrayList object is accessible in the consequence as long I don't check for it 
in the condition.  

Can anyone tell me why the ArrayList cannot be read from the process parameters 
in the condition portion of a rule?

Are there any options to this scenario other than loading the elements from the 
ArrayList into working memory and running a "from collect" on them?

I have attached code that demonstrates the issue.

Thanks.
