Hi,

I'm learning Drools in Seam 2.2.0.

I trying to pass the instance of and session bean in @Restrict and getting following run time exception.

The project is created using seam-gen.

FYI - simple @Restrict tag fires rules correctly...here I target and action are hardcoded strings in the rule.

PolicyAction.java

==============

@Stateful

@Name("policyAction")

@Scope(ScopeType.SESSION)

@Restrict("#{identity.loggedIn}")

public class PolicyAction implements PolicyActionInterface

{

     @PersistenceContext private EntityManager em;   

     @Logger    private static Log log;       

     private String searchString;

     private int pageSize = 10;    

     .......

     @Restrict("#{s:hasPermission(policyAction, 'check')}")

     public void save()

     {                           

          ........                

     }

security.drl

==========

package InsAppPermissions;

import java.security.Principal;

import org.jboss.seam.security.Role;

import org.jboss.seam.security.permission.PermissionCheck;

import com.mydomain.InsApp.action.PolicyAction

rule InstancePass  

     no-loop  

when   

     e: PolicyAction(pageSize == 10)   

     c: PermissionCheck(target == e, action == "check")

then   

     System.out.println("******** security.drl: InstancePass ****************");   

     c.grant();

end

Exception Message  (This is part of the message along with a stack trace..I'm showing the stack as not sure what part to show)

===================

Exception during request processing:

Caused by javax.servlet.ServletException with message: "#{policyAction.save}: javax.el.ELException: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: not a proxy instance"
