Исключение нулевого указателя с накоплением Drools()

Я пытаюсь выполнить очень простой пример, демонстрирующий использование accumulate() функция Drools, но я получаю исключение java.lang.NullPointerException.

Вот код:

Metric.java:

package com.sample;

public class Metric
{
  public String id;
  public double value;

  public Metric(String id, double value)
  {
    this.id = id;
    this.value = value;
  }
}

ruleFile1.drl:

package com.sample

declare Metric
    @role( event )
end

rule "rule1"
when
    Metric()
    metricAverage: Number() from accumulate(
        Metric( $value : value ),
        average( $value ) )
then
    System.out.println("metric value average " + metricAverage);
end

KSessionGenerator.java:

package com.sample;

import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;

import org.kie.api.KieBase;
import org.kie.api.KieBaseConfiguration;
import org.kie.api.KieServices;
import org.kie.api.builder.KieBuilder;
import org.kie.api.builder.KieFileSystem;
import org.kie.api.builder.Message;
import org.kie.api.builder.Results;
import org.kie.api.conf.EventProcessingOption;
import org.kie.api.runtime.KieContainer;
import org.kie.api.runtime.KieSession;

public class KSessionGenerator {

  public KieSession buildKSession(String ruleFilePath){
    KieServices kieServices = KieServices.Factory.get();

    FileInputStream fis = null;
    try {
      fis = new FileInputStream(ruleFilePath);
    } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
      e.printStackTrace();
      return null;
    }

    String virtualRuleFilePath = "src/main/resources/ruleFile1.drl";
    KieFileSystem kfs = kieServices.newKieFileSystem();
    kfs.write(virtualRuleFilePath, kieServices.getResources().newInputStreamResource(fis));

    KieBuilder kieBuilder = kieServices.newKieBuilder(kfs).buildAll();
    Results results = kieBuilder.getResults();
    if (results.hasMessages(Message.Level.ERROR)) {
      System.out.println(results.getMessages());
      throw new IllegalStateException("### errors ###");
    }

    KieContainer kieContainer = kieServices.newKieContainer(kieServices.getRepository().getDefaultReleaseId());

    // Change the engine mode to 'stream'
    KieBaseConfiguration config = kieServices.newKieBaseConfiguration();
    config.setOption( EventProcessingOption.STREAM );

    KieBase kieBase = kieContainer.newKieBase( config );
    KieSession kSession = kieBase.newKieSession();

    return kSession;
  }
}

DroolsTest1.java:

package com.sample;

import org.kie.api.runtime.KieSession;

public class DroolsTest1 {

  public static final void main(String[] args) {
    try {
      String ruleFilePath = "src/main/resources/rules/ruleFile1.drl";
      KieSession kSession = (new KSessionGenerator()).buildKSession(ruleFilePath);

      // go !
      Metric metric1 = new Metric("m1", 50);
      Metric metric2 = new Metric("m2", 60);

      kSession.insert(metric1);
      kSession.insert(metric2);

      System.out.println("Firing all rules ...");
      kSession.fireAllRules();
      System.out.println("Rules fired!");

      System.out.println("Bye");
    } catch (Throwable t) {
      t.printStackTrace();
    }
  }
}

kmodule.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<kmodule xmlns="http://jboss.org/kie/6.0.0/kmodule">
    <kbase name="rules" packages="rules">
        <ksession name="ksession-rules"/>
    </kbase>
</kmodule>

Я использую Drools версии 6.2.0 Final через плагин на Eclipse Mars 4.5.2.

Может ли кто-нибудь сказать мне причину ошибки вместе с ее решением?
