error when using WebSockets with Netty 3.2.7 & Jetty 8.1

[ben1234]

Hi,

I have encountered some issues while trying to create the server side webSockets(I know that the client side works becase when i redirect it to a tomcat server everything is good)

I am recieving the following error message:

17:36:01,728 ERROR [org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.[jboss.web].[default-host].[/benAsync].[AsynchServlet]] (http-localhost/127.0.0.1:8080-7) JBWEB000236: Servlet.service() for servlet AsynchServlet threw exception: java.lang.NullPointerException

Here is my Code:

package com.microfocus.entrypoint.servlets;

import java.io.IOException;

import java.util.Set;

import java.util.concurrent.CopyOnWriteArraySet;

import javax.servlet.ServletException;

import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;

import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;

import org.eclipse.jetty.websocket.WebSocket;

import org.eclipse.jetty.websocket.WebSocketConnection;

import org.eclipse.jetty.websocket.WebSocketServlet;

@SuppressWarnings("serial")

public class OWMFAsyncJboss extends WebSocketServlet {

          @SuppressWarnings({ "unchecked", "rawtypes" })

          private final Set<ChatWebSocket> users = new CopyOnWriteArraySet();

          @Override

          public WebSocket doWebSocketConnect(HttpServletRequest arg0, String arg1) {

                    try

                    {

                    return new ChatWebSocket();

                    }

                    catch(Exception e)

                    {

                              System.console().writer().write("error");

                    }

                    return null;

          }

          @Override

          protected void service(HttpServletRequest request,

                              HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {

                    super.service(request, response);

          }

          class ChatWebSocket implements WebSocket

          {

                    WebSocketConnection connection;

                    @Override

                    public void onClose(int arg0, String arg1) {

                              users.remove(this);

                    }

                    @Override

                    public void onOpen(Connection arg0) {

                              ChatWebSocket.this.connection= (WebSocketConnection) connection;

                              users.add(this);

                    }

                    public void onMessage(byte frame, byte[] data,int offset, int length)

                    {

                    // binary communication not needed

                    }

                    public void onMessage(byte frame, String data)

                    {

                    }

          }

}

It is a code i took from a well proven sample

the error occurrs after the "doWebSocketConnect" function returns the ChatWebSocket , for some reason it thinkgs that the chatWebSocket is empty :\

If any of you can help me i will be very gratfull

thanks

[ben1234]

after getting a little further into the jetty code i got to the point that it throws the exception -

file:WebSocketFactory.java

the following line : "AbstractHttpConnection http = AbstractHttpConnection.getCurrentConnection()" returns null to the http variable

and later on there is a try to use the http as an object and call its "getEndPoint()" function - which obviously throws the exception

anyone knows what can make the "getCurrentConnection()" function return null?

I think that is in the wrong forum... We don't support Jetty.
