I'm trying to inject a Stateless EJB into my JAX-RS webservice via Annotation @EJB. Unfortunately the EJB being injected is null and throws a NullPointerException when it is being called, see the class "RegistrationRest":
@Path("/database")
@Stateless
public class RegistrationRest {
@EJB
private DbDao dbDao;
@Path("getInfo/{name}")
@GET
@Produces(MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN)
public String getInfoByName(@PathParam("name") String name {
TreeSet <String> ts = new TreeSet<String>();
JsonGenerator json = new JsonGenerator().writeStartArray();
// Lesen Info aus Datenbank
for(Persons person : dbDao.findInfoByName(name) {
ts.add(person.getName());
}
// Schreiben der gefundenen Staedte in ein JSON
for(String name : ts) {
json.write(name);
}
// Rueckgabe der Daten als JSON
return json.writeEnd().toString();
}
}
My Webservice is registered as part and via javax.ws.rs.core.Application, see code of "RestConfiguration":
package net.service.rest;
import javax.ws.rs.ApplicationPath;
import javax.ws.rs.core.Application;
// other imports
@ApplicationPath("/rest")
public class RestConfiguration extends Application {
@Override
public Set<Class<?>> getClasses() {
return new HashSet<Class<?>>(Arrays.asList(RegistrationRest.class));
}
}
As the injected EJB implements an interface that could be the fact that prevents the EJB being injected into the webservice/resource, as I understood reading this article: http://netbeans.dzone.com/articles/how-to-combine-rest-and-ejb-31
As the EJB with the name "DbDao" is a DAO which implements an interface I would like to keep:
@Stateless(name = "DbDao")
@Local
public class DbDaoImpl implements DbDao {
private final String ENTITY_MANAGER = "mouPU";
@PersistenceContext(unitName = ENTITY_MANAGER)
protected EntityManager em;
@Override
public List<Address> findInfoByName(final String name) {
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
List<Person> persons = em.createNamedQuery("findInfoByName").setParameter("name", name)).getResultList();
return persons;
}
}
In the above article it is stated that is not possible to inject an EJB which implements an interface.I cannot imagine that is so or I suppose I overlooked something.
Here is the stacktrace:
