Stateless component null?

[ypasmk]

Hi i have one stateless and one stateful bean ... my stateless bean is :

@Stateless
@Name("processor")
public class SchedJobAction implements SchedJob{

        @Logger
        private Log log;
        
        @In QuartzTriggerHandle timer;
        
        
        
        @Asynchronous
        public void scheduleAlert(@Expiration Date when,
                        @IntervalDuration Long interval,
                        @FinalExpiration Date endDate) {
                
                
                log.info("working now");
                
        }
        
        public void testMethod() {
                
                log.info("test method ok");
        }

}

my stateful bean is

@Stateful
@Name("testJobAction")
public class testJobAction implements testJob {
        
        @Logger
        private Log log;
        
        @In(create=true)
        SchedJobAction processor;
        
        @Remove @Destroy
        public void destroy() {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                
        }

        public void startJob() {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                log.info("hi there");
                
                Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance ();
                cal.set (209, Calendar.OCTOBER, 21);
                
                //SchedJobAction processor=new SchedJobAction();
                
                processor.testMethod();
                
        }

        
}

when the startJob method is called I get the following exception

If I remove the

 @In SchedJobAction processor 

and just insert

SchedJobAction processor=new SchedJobAction() 

then when the processor.testMethod() is called, the timer and log are both null...what am I doing wrong?

Since SchedJobAction is an SLSB, you need to use the interface when injecting.
The value that gets injected is a proxy and is not an instance of SchedJobAction (Cf. class org.javassist.tmp.java.lang.Object_$$_javassist_seam_4), but is an instance of SchedJob

So use:

@In(create=true)
SchedJob processor;

If you want to use Seam features (injection, etc), you should not instantiate with new.
Use Component.getInstance(), @Autocreate or @In(create=true) instead.
