@AutoCreate and create = true does not work

[gothmog]

Hi,

I have two APPLICATION scoped components and one needs to be @In jected with the other, however I get

SEVERE: Error Rendering View[/cgsimulateentry.xhtml]
org.jboss.seam.RequiredException: In attribute requires non-null value: entrySimulation.exAP

Seam recognizes the components and they are in the right scope as I can see this in the JBoss startup.

17:17:54,968 INFO [Component] Component: entryGate, scope: APPLICATION, type: JAVA_BEAN, class: model.EXAccessPoint
17:17:54,976 INFO [Component] Component: entrySimulation, scope: APPLICATION, type: JAVA_BEAN, class: model.EXSimulation

My two components look like this:

@Name("entryGate")
@Scope(ScopeType.APPLICATION)
@AutoCreate
public class EXAccessPoint {

 @Logger Log log;

 @In EntityManager em;
...

@Name("entrySimulation")
@Scope(ScopeType.APPLICATION)
public class EXSimulation {

 @Logger Log log;

 @In EXAccessPoint exAP;
...

What have I missed why can't seam auto create the EXAccesPoint class when it needs to be @in-jected into EXSimulation??

Thanks

Troy

Try:
@In(create=true) EXAccessPoint exAP

[matt.drees]

You need

@In EXAccessPoint entryGate;

The field name needs to match the name of the component you want injected.

Or this should work as well

@In(value="entryGate")
EXAccessPoint exAP;

Yes, thanks, both cases work :) I do remember reading this now, I guess I was kinda thinking application scope therefore singleton so it slipped my mind.

Seam is great, my one comment on it so far would be the exception messages are not helpful and sometimes lead you on a goose chase...

But hey we are all learning, and its really accelerating the project I am on now :)
