Hi,

I have written a simple rule:

#list any import classes here.
import test.Person

rule "check pete"
        when
                fet : Person( name == "pete");
        then
                System.out.println("fet name " + fet.getName());
end


When I run this it passes;

But If I run the same rule but in the RHS I add the person to the list, like so:

#list any import classes here.
import test.Person


#declare any global variables here
global java.util.List list


rule "check pete"
        when
                fet : Person( name == "pete");
        then
                list.add( fet );                
end

I am getting the following error
