Hi Mike.
The scenario is that in the service request and it contains a request id,
which is really a rule name. So depending on the rule name being called,
a specific delegate would handle the service request, which is why I did
what I did. Here's maybe a clearer example
<rule name="LoginRequest">
<parameter identifier="request">
<class>com.dtcc.dnv.request.IServiceRequest</class>
</parameter>
<parameter identifier="delegate">
<class>com.dtcc.dnv.delegate.IDelegate</class>
</parameter>
<java:consequence>delegate = new
com.dtcc.dnv.delegate.LoginDelegate();</java:consequence>
</rule>
<rule name="DBRequest">
<parameter identifier="request">
<class>com.dtcc.dnv.request.IServiceRequest</class>
</parameter>
<parameter identifier="delegate">
<class>com.dtcc.dnv.delegate.IDelegate</class>
</parameter>
<java:consequence>delegate = new
com.dtcc.dnv.delegate.DBDelegate();</java:consequence>
</rule>
Thanks,
Susan G. Lee

Re: [drools-user] Assert Null objects
that rule doesn't quite make sense. you can set a null pointer to a new
object in that way and have it do anything useful.
explain a bit more what you are trying to do?
