Hi I have a seam pojo annotated as @PersistenceContext (type=EXTENDED) private EntityManager em; and I have the factory method @Factory ("foobar") @SuppressWarnings ("unchecked") public void findAllFoobars() { foobars = em.createQuery("from Foobar f").getResultList(); } When the factory method is called, the entity manager is null. Does anyone have any idea why this would occur? All my other objects based on EntityHome<> work fine. Oh yeah, I am using 1.1 CR1.
