Wolfgang, still no news as to the expected behaviour :( Sotty, I appreciate you are probably busy with other activities, however any your thoughts on the following would be most welcome:-
- For POJOs is a field only added to the declared type if it has a getter and setter (something laune said he'd seen; email earlier in this thread)? - Are fact-level annotations inherited? - Are field-level annotations inherited? - Type erasure on subclasses, if type A declares "myVar : String" and type B extends A and declaring "myVar : Integer", what should happen? For others interested, here's some answers already received: - Can declarative types extend Java POJOs and other declared types? <sotty> yes - For POJO's do I need to include an "empty" declaration? So "declare java.util.ArrayList end" if I want to "declare MyList extends ArrayList" in a java.util package? <sotty> no, it should be enough to import the fqn or use it in the "extends". *<manstis> note this is different to what is documented in the Drools Expert user-guide * Thanks, Mike On 12 July 2011 13:12, Michael Anstis <michael.ans...@gmail.com> wrote: > https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBRULES-3133 created. > > > On 12 July 2011 13:08, Michael Anstis <michael.ans...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> There's also a quirk regarding the class resolution:- >> >> Given Person class:- >> >> package com.guvnor.domain; >> >> import java.math.BigDecimal; >> >> public class Person { >> >> private BigDecimal salary; >> >> public BigDecimal getSalary() { >> return salary; >> } >> >> public void setSalary(BigDecimal salary) { >> this.salary = salary; >> } >> >> } >> >> >> The following compiles OK:- >> >> package com.sample >> >> import com.guvnor.domain.Person >> >> declare Person >> end >> >> However the following does not (without explicitly importing >> java.math.BigDecimal - which is a field type in Person):- >> >> package com.sample >> >> import com.guvnor.domain.Person >> import com.guvnor.domain.Address >> >> declare Person >> end >> >> declare Person2 extends Person >> flange : String >> end >> >> Error being "Unknown DroolsError class >> org.drools.compiler.TypeDeclarationError: Unable to find class 'BigDecimal' >> ". >> >> With kind regards, >> >> Mike >> >> >> On 11 July 2011 08:41, Wolfgang Laun <wolfgang.l...@gmail.com> wrote: >> >>> Subsection 5.7.7 discusses 'extends' and describes how it is done for >>> types declared in Java. >>> >>> One finesse is apparently not documented: Java types must be proper >>> JavaBeans; otherwise the construction of the accessors will fail.
