I have a gradle dependency compile group: 'org.drools', name: 'drools-compiler', version: '7.0.0.Final'

I want to update the class file org.drools.compiler.kie.builder.impl.KieServicesImpl in it and run my java application with the updated one.

How is it possible?

what have you tried so far? Please show us your efforts. – Vinay Prajapati Apr 06 '18 at 07:15
I have removed the package from the .jar file, and then added the packages source code in my application as java code and updated the source code. – Soniya Abaraham Apr 06 '18 at 07:43
I think you could just do it, i.e. copy class, compile as usual, add the jar compile dependency and at runtime your class will be loaded first. Did you try that? (see also https://stackoverflow.com/a/8362348/1063673 for web apps). PLEASE NOTE: I DO NOT RECOMMEND TO OVERWRITE LIBRARY CLASSES! – Steffen Harbich Apr 06 '18 at 11:43
I just want to put sysouts to find out the values getting passed to those files. – Soniya Abaraham Apr 06 '18 at 13:01
This is usually done with a debugger breakpoint step-by-step code execution. – Steffen Harbich Apr 06 '18 at 13:02
I gave debug pointers there but, its not going to the place where I gave debug pointer. – Soniya Abaraham Apr 09 '18 at 07:49
And I am not able to see the value of the fields – Soniya Abaraham Apr 09 '18 at 07:50
