public List<SelectItem> getRolesList() {
   List<SelectItem> items = new ArrayList<SelectItem>();
   List<Role> roleList = identityManager.getQueryBuilder()
   .createIdentityQuery(Role.class).getResultList();
   for (Role role : roleList) {
   if (role != null)
  items.add(new SelectItem(role.getName()));
   }
   return items;

 }

'role' is always null. I tried to test exactly the same method with a List instead, and it works (every (User user : userList)  is correctly found).

identityManager is @Injected; this is its configuration:

@ApplicationScoped
public class InjectConfiguration {

   private IdentityConfigurationBuilder builder;

   @PicketLink
   @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
   @Produces
   public IdentityConfigurationBuilder getIdentityConfigurationBuilder()   {
   if (builder == null) {
  builder = new IdentityConfigurationBuilder();
  builder.named("default.config")
   .stores()
   .jpa()
   .supportType(User.class, Role.class, Group.class,
   Realm.class, Application.class,
   ApplicationRealm.class)
   .supportGlobalRelationship(Grant.class,
   GroupMembership.class, ApplicationAccess.class)
   .supportCredentials(true)
   .mappedEntity(ApplicationAccessTypeEntity.class,
   ApplicationTypeEntity.class,
   ApplicationRealmTypeEntity.class,
   PartitionTypeEntity.class, GrantTypeEntity.class,
   GroupMembershipTypeEntity.class,
   GroupTypeEntity.class, RealmTypeEntity.class,
   RoleTypeEntity.class, UserTypeEntity.class,
   PasswordCredentialTypeEntity.class,
   RelationshipTypeEntity.class,
   RelationshipIdentityTypeEntity.class)
   .addCredentialHandler(PasswordCredentialHandler.class);
   }
   return builder;

   }
}

I can't imagine what the error should be. First, I thought Roles weren't even saved in my db, but SELECT * FROM RoleTypeEntity denied my doubts. The only other thing I could think about was something like some kind of problem with the injection of IdentityManager , but once again, as I said, testing the method with querying users gave me positive results. Any ideas? Thank you in advantage for the help.
