APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
The IRL generated for "Character does not equal char" is incorrect and may lead rules to fire (or not fire) unexpectedly. Namely the BAL rule: if myCharacterObject does not equal `c` then... is translated to the IRL: evaluate ((myCharacterObject != java.lang.Character.valueOf('c'))); which will be true even if myCharacterObject is 'c' . Instead the IRL should be: evaluate ((myCharacterObject.charValue() != 'c'));
Local fix
- use "is not" instead of "does not equal" - use Decision Engine ruleset build mode instead of Classic rule engine build mode if available (8.5.1+) - use a modified boot.bom where the property computeBestType "true" is added to the method Character.doesNotEqual().
Problem summary
Incorrect code generation for character constant
Problem conclusion
The code is fixed
Temporary fix
