ManagedExecutorService gets injected null in REST Service

[f_marchioni]

Hi all!

I'm running a test of a REST Service on WildFly 12. I've noticed that ManagedExecutorService executorService gets injected null in a REST Service:

@Resource(name = "DefaultManagedExecutorService")
ManagedExecutorService executorService;

@Path("/test")
@GET
public void test() {      
 System.out.println("executorService:"+executorService); // Null
}

On the other hand, a basic Servlet in the same project gets injected the Executor correctly:

@Resource(name = "DefaultManagedExecutorService")
ManagedExecutorService executor;
    
    
    protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
        PrintWriter writer = response.getWriter();
        
        executor.execute(new SimpleTask());     
        
        writer.write("Task SimpleTask executed! check logs");
    }
}

The above code works.

Should I raise a JIRA for that ?

Thanks

Francesco
