MDB attempting to raise an event - No Application Context active

[akearns1]

The existing application sends JMS message to deliver both information and status.

I have my application deployed with an MDB that catches these messages. I am trying to call Events.raiseEvent(key, event) thinking that this should work. It does not, I get an illegalStateException "no application context active"
My question: how can I get a context that I can use?

code follows:

@AutoCreate

@MessageDriven(activationConfig = {

  @ActivationConfigProperty(propertyName="destinationType",

    propertyValue="javax.jms.Topic"),

  @ActivationConfigProperty(propertyName="destination",

    propertyValue=TopicPublisher.CLIENT_TOPIC)

})

public class ProAsyncMDB implements MessageListener

{

  @In(create = true)

  Context applicationContext;

     

  public void onMessage (Message message)

  {

    String func = "ProAsyncMDB.onMessage()...";

    System.err.println(func + "starting");

                     

    Object o = ((ObjectMessage )message).getObject();

    ProJmsVisualObject jmsVisual = (ProJmsVisualObject )o;

    Events.instance().raiseEvent("processVisual",jmsVisual);

  }

}

I have tried using

@Stateless

@Name("asyncMDB")

@Scope(ScopeType.Application)

In the current state of the code the applicationContext is null. The exception is raised when I attempt to sent the event.

My observer for the Event just logs a message if it sees one. That code is page scoped, where my mdb can be application scoped.

Another restriction I have is no java script, I tried the chatroom example that works within my envionment.

Thanks

Looks similar to JBSEAM-2286

Thanks, but I looked at the other postings, I did not see anything that solved the problem.

I was able to get past the No Application Context active by:

adding the following to components.xml

   <component class="org.jboss.seam.remoting.messaging.SubscriptionRegistry" installed="true">

        <property name="allowedTopics">myTopic</property>

    </component>

2) adding @name to the MDB

Now the code should be raising an event that is caught by another component.

There are no exceptions thrown.

I downloaded and tried my application with the latest 2.0.2.GA; I do not see a difference, I was using 2.1.0.A1
I am using jboss-4.2.2.GA

I believe there is something incorrect with the state of my MDB. It acts like I instantiated another version of my seam app. Within my MDB I generate an event that is caught within an application scoped bean; that bean send another event to a page scoped bean. It works differently depended on where I initiate
the event from.

From Web page - click a link - generate the event handled by application scoped bean

From MDB - onMessage - generate the event handled by the application scoped bean

In either case the application scoped bean genrates another event that is caught by a page scoped bean.

In first case I see the event caught by page scoped bean.
In second case I do not, it is caught by the application scoped but not the page scoped.

The MDB bean, application and page scoped beans are in the same jar. I have a polling service that generates the JMS message, that is in a sar. These two files and the .war are in the .ear

What I am trying to do is get the data that is polled delivered to one or more users viewing that device.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

The PAGE scope isn't active during calls originated via an MDB.

I am trying to get an alert shown to all logged in users, is there a way that I can do this?

The alert is generated by the server and is not reaction to something the user did.

Thanks
