CDI Servlet java.lang.NullPointerException

Question

People, please, help me!!! I am driving really crazy. My code have been working before today, and now it's broken...

Here is my servlet:

@Stateless
class TempSession {
    void createFile( String fileName ) {
        try {
            FileWriter writer = new FileWriter( fileName );
            writer.close();
        }
        catch ( IOException e ) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

@WebServlet( name = "CreteFileServlet", urlPatterns = "/createCSV" )
public class CreateCSVConfigurationServlet extends javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet {
    @Inject
    TempSession session;

    protected void doPost( javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request,
            javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse response ) throws javax.servlet.ServletException, IOException {}

    protected void doGet( javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request,
            javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse response ) throws javax.servlet.ServletException, IOException {
        session.createFile( "d:/session.txt" );
    }
}

Here is web.xml:

<servlet>
    <servlet-name>CreateFileServlet</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>com.bs.amg.test.servlets.CreateCSVConfigurationServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>CreateFileServlet</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/createCSV</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

JSP snippet:

<form action="createCSV" method="get">
    <input type="submit" value="Create configuration"/>
</form>

Anв Jboss 7.0.1 log server snippet:

Please, I really need your help!!!!!

Answer 1

I think that the injection is not occuring because CDI is not enabled. Make sure you have a beans.xml as stated in CDI documentation: http://docs.oracle.com/javaee/6/tutorial/doc/gjbnz.html. Here is a sample beans.xml file you can use to enable CDI:

<beans xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/beans_1_0.xsd">
</beans>

Answer 2

You are declaring your servlet with both webservlet annotation and web.xml mapping. You should have only one declaration using the annotation as in this example.
