no injection of @Resource TimerService within Entity EJB -------------------------------------------------------- Key: EJBTHREE-726 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/EJBTHREE-726 Project: EJB 3.0 Issue Type: Feature Request Components: EJB3 Extensions Affects Versions: EJB 3.0 RC9 - FD Environment: JBoss AS 4.0.4GA (via web installer), EJB 3.0 RC9, JDK 1.5.0_6, Windows XP Pro 2002 w/SP2 Reporter: James I'm working with 4.0.4GA and EJB3 RC9 on Java 1.5.0_06 (WinXP). Have created an entity bean with the container's timer service injected. When I reference the timer service, it is null. Under the same conditions, I am successful at injecting the timer service into both a MDB and a stateless session bean. No errors or warnings in compile or deployment with verbose output, only the NullPointerException when attempting to use the timer service. Here is what I am doing (simplified): @Entity public class MyEntity implements Serializable { @Resource private TimerService timerService; ... public createMyTimer() { try { if((timerService.getTimers()).isEmpty() == false) { ... The call to getTimers() throws the NullPointerException. I'm starting with a feature request, not sure this is a bug just yet. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
