javaserializationdroolsdrools-fusion

Temporal operator fails after serialization in Drools 6.5.0 and Drools 7.0.0


i am trying to implement serialization in drools. My problem is that drools fusion operators after, before,... are not serialized as expected.

My rules are working correctly if I don't use serialization and deserialization.

I attached a reproducer. Can anyone tell me what the problem is. I expect the rule to fire only once. It should fire once at 03:06:00 but it fires 3 times, once at 3:04:00 and 2 times at 3:06:00.

Event which is serialized:

package com.reproducer;

import java.io.Serializable;
import java.util.Date;

import org.apache.commons.lang3.builder.ToStringBuilder;

public class EventA implements Serializable {

/**
 * 
 */
private static final long serialVersionUID = 8129243856721618942L;
private int value;
private Date timestamp;

public EventA(Date timestamp, int value) {
    this.value = value;
    this.timestamp = timestamp;
}

public Date getTimestamp() {
    return timestamp;
}

public int getValue() {
    return value;
}

@Override
public String toString() {
        return new ToStringBuilder(this)
                .append("value", this.value)
                .append("timestamp", this.getTimestamp()).toString();
    }
}

Test:

@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@ContextConfiguration(loader = AnnotationConfigContextLoader.class)
public class Reproducer {
    // date formatter for simulation data and tests
    private static DateFormat dateFormatter = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");

    @Configuration
    static class ContextConfiguration {

    }

    @Test
    public void ruleTest() {
        List<EventA> events = getSimulationEvents();
        startKnowledgeSession(events.get(0).getTimestamp(), false);
        runSimulation(events);
    }

    private static Date parseDate(String input) {
        Date d = null;
        try {
            d = dateFormatter.parse(input);
        } catch (ParseException e) {

                bais.close();
            } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {

Solution

  • I opened a bug report for this problem at the JBOSS Developer Jira Bug Report. It was a bug in the drools core engine. It will be fixed with version 7.2.0Final.
