Component.getInstance(): No application context active

[mpssantos.mpssantos.gmail.com]

Hello there.

I'm having some problems instantiating a Seam Component on a class that is not Seam Component. I try to get the seam component with the following code:

PartnerHandlerBean partnerHandler=(PartnerHandlerBean) Component.getInstance(PartnerHandlerBean.class, true)

I also tryed with the component name

PartnerHandlerBean partnerHandler=(PartnerHandlerBean) Component.getInstance("partnerHandler", true)

But when this line is executed i get the follow execption.

java.lang.IllegalStateException: No application context active

Does anyone knows what am i missing, and how to solve it?

Thanks a lot

You should use a method annotated as @Factory instead.

Thanks!

But i can't add the annotation @Factory once the class is not a Seam Component. It is a simple class.
