Hey Guys!

I'm new to seam, and at the moment I'm trying to build a little application, which basically is the same like your hotel booking excample! For now I'm stuck with the search function, since I want to make use of DAO's which isn't the case in your excample.

I thought I might solve the problem like this:
(getter/setter aren't included)

@Stateful
@Name("Search")
@Scope(ScopeType.SESSION)
public class SearchAction implements ISearch {

        private String searchstring;
        
        @DataModel
        private List<SearchObject> searchobj;
        
        @In (create = true)
        ISearchDAO db;
        
        public void findSearchObj() {
                searchobj = db.find( searchstring );
        }
}

the implementation of searchDAO looks like

@Stateless
@Name("SearchDAO")
@AutoCreate
public class SearchDAO implements ISearchDAO {

        @PersistenceContext
        EntityManager em;
        
        @Logger
        Log logger;

        public List<SearchObject> findSearchObj( String value ) {
                //some query
        }
}

unfortunately this isn't working and the app crashes with
Caused by: org.jboss.seam.RequiredException: @In attribute requires non-null value: Search.db

If I put the query's into the SearchAction obj. it  works fine.

I don't know what I'm  missing here.. so any help is appreciated!
