FEEL: list contains(inputDataNumberList, 1) with inputDataNumberList= [0,1] returns false

I load this DMN-File in my DMNModel class:

Then I call: DMNResult result = dmnRuntime.evaluateAll(dmnModel, context); with context: inputNumberList [0, 1]

and get the result:

Result_1_OK=true,
Result_2_OK=true,
Result_3=false,
Result_4=false

What am I doing wrong with Result_3 and Result_4 or why does the evaluation not find the number in the list?

With string lists or boolean lists all goes right.

Solution

  • Thank you for reporting, this was a bug and we just fixed it.

    As a workaround, you can supply to the API a List<BigDecimal> and that should avoid the problem. Anyhow my best advice is to avoid the workaround if possible, and either cherry-pick the fix or update as soon as a new Drools version is released containing the mentioned fix.
