[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - Outjection and component instantiation question

I think I may have a misconception of some of the intricacies of outjection and Seam component instantiation. I have a Seam component that is created by Seam via the @In(create=true) annotation. Unfortunately, I cannot seem to inject another Seam component into this component. Here's what I'm doing: Seam component 1 | @Name("comp1") | @Stateful | public class MySample1Bean implements MySample1 { | ... | | @Out | Connection connection = null; | ... | public void myMethod() { | ... | connection = ...; | ... | } | } Seam component 2 | @Name("comp2") | @Stateful | public class MySample2Bean implements MySample2 { | ... | | @In(create=true) // I've also tried @In(create=true, required=false) | MySample3 comp3 = null; | | @In | Connection connection = null; | ... | | } Seam component 3 | @Name("comp3") | @Stateful | public class MySample3Bean implements MySample3 { | ... | | @In // I've put @In(required=false) here, too just so component gets created | Connection connection = null; | | ... | | } I have a page where comp1 is called. The user then invokes an action method which then navigates the user to another page, where comp2 is accessed. BTW, I have it on my pages.xml file that a long running conversation gets started (i.e. using <begin-conversation> when the page is invoked) for the page that calls comp2. The Seam component comp3 gets created in comp2 because of the @In(create=true) annotation. However, when comp3 is created, I'm expecting the connection context variable to be outjected to comp3. Unfortunately, connection is always null in comp3. Interestingly, connection is non-null in comp2. What's going on here and what am I doing wrong?
