Can not get @Inject to work on JBoss 6.1.0.Final

[tjj]

I have a statleless session bean:

@Stateless

public class TestBean {

    @Inject

    private Test test;

...

an interface:

public interface Test {

}

and a managed bean that implements the interface:

import javax.inject.Named;

@Named("Test")

public class TestImpl implements Test {

}

all classes are packaged in a war file in the WEB-INF/classes directory

A beans.xml file is placed in the WEB-INF directory of test.war:

<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>

When TestBean is invoked, nothing is injected into the test field.

I've also tried using a producer and an Instance, but again nothing is injected.

The are no error messages in the server console, and the following traces of Weld can be found in the console:

...

I can't figure out what the problem is. Has anyone got a clue?

What about if you put beans.xml into WEB-INF/classes/META-INF?

[tjj]

Thanks Ales. I've tried putting beans.xml just about everywhere (META-INF, WEB-INF, WEB-INF/classes/META-INF), but it still doesn't work. Before making a war-archive I tried making a JAR-archive, with the beans.xml in the META-INF directory, but that didn't work either.

As far as I understand, the beans.xml marker file is all that's needed to make weld work - no configuration of JBoss should be necessary. Am I right? (I've included the weld.deployer/META-INF files)

[alesj]

Strange, as this should definitely work -- so trivial example.

And we did use AS6 for all Weld tests before AS7.

Let me check which "injector" should know how to inject CDI beans into EJBs ...

How and where is that TestBean SLSB being looked up/invoked? Can you post the entire exception stacktrace which probably contains a NPE.

[tjj]

The TestBean session bean is actually deployed as a restful web service (not shown in my simple example). When i tested it I invoked the restfull service from a web browser. I also tried using @Inject on a stateless session bean being invoked from that restful webservice session bean (injected by @EJB), but nothing gets injected in that case either

@Local

@Path("/test")

@Consumes({"application/json"})

@Produces({"application/json"})

public interface Test {

    @GET

    @Path(("/test"))

    void test();

The are no exceptions in the server console, but I'll of cource get a NPE when trying to invoke the injected object...

I''l take a short vacation and will de back on june 20th

Any ideas anyone?

I'm using Google Guice on the client, and that works like a charm...
