I have a Rule implementation as below which works as expected, here
Vehicles() and RuleConstant are facts.
/rule "Rule|1"
no-loop true
when
$CONSTANT : RuleConstant();
$vehicles : Vehicles();
$vehicle:Vehicle(modelYear > 2000, type = $CONSTANT.SEDAN) from
$vehicles.Vehicle;
then
$vehicle.setValue(100);
update($vehicles);
end /
But am planning to abstract the rules in the below fashion so that we can
reuse the LHS conditions which doesn't work and throws the below said Null
Pointer Exception
*BaseRule.drl*
/package com.xyz.base
rule "Base|1"
no-loop true
enabled false
when
$CONSTANT : RuleConstant();
$vehicles : Vehicles();
then
end /
*CustomRule.drl*
/package com.xyz.custom
rule "Custom|1" extends "Base|1"
no-loop true
enabled true
when
$vehicle:Vehicle(modelYear > 2000, type = $CONSTANT.SEDAN) from
$vehicles.Vehicle;
then
$vehicle.setValue(100);
update($vehicles);
end
rule "Custom|2" extends "Base|1"
no-loop true
enabled true
when
$vehicle:Vehicle(modelYear > 2000, type = $CONSTANT.COUPE) from
$vehicles.Vehicle;
then
$vehicle.setValue(100);
update($vehicles);
end/
*Exception:*
