NullPointerException --------------------- Key: WELD-445 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/WELD-445 Project: Weld Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 1.0.1.CR2 Environment: JBoss 6.0.0 M2 updated with Weld 1.0.1 CR2, Windows XP Reporter: Ian I get a NullPointerException when trying to inject a logger into my code. It happens in two circumstances - once when injection is done by the container, once when I manually inject (using the SPI of course!). The top of the stack trace is exactly the same in both instances: java.lang.NullPointerException org.jboss.weld.util.Beans.isPassivatingScope(Beans.java:132) org.jboss.weld.bean.AbstractProducerBean.checkReturnValue(AbstractProducerBean.java:263) org.jboss.weld.bean.AbstractProducerBean.create(AbstractProducerBean.java:349) org.jboss.weld.context.DependentContext.get(DependentContext.java:62) org.jboss.weld.manager.BeanManagerImpl.getReference(BeanManagerImpl.java:788) org.jboss.weld.manager.BeanManagerImpl.getReference(BeanManagerImpl.java:850) org.jboss.weld.manager.BeanManagerImpl.getInjectableReference(BeanManagerImpl.java:874) org.jboss.weld.injection.FieldInjectionPoint.inject(FieldInjectionPoint.java:108) org.jboss.weld.util.Beans.injectBoundFields(Beans.java:775) org.jboss.weld.util.Beans.injectFieldsAndInitializers(Beans.java:787) org.jboss.weld.manager.SimpleInjectionTarget$1.proceed(SimpleInjectionTarget.java:122) org.jboss.weld.injection.InjectionContextImpl.run(InjectionContextImpl.java:51) org.jboss.weld.manager.SimpleInjectionTarget.inject(SimpleInjectionTarget.java:116) The code fragment for the item being injected is the following: (the logger is a log4j logger) public class LoggingFactory { @Produces Logger createLogger(InjectionPoint injectionPoint) { return Logger.getLogger(injectionPoint.getMember().getDeclaringClass().getName()); } } The servletContextListener code fragment is as follows: public class ApplicationInitialisation implements ServletContextListener { @Inject private Logger log; /** * @see ServletContextListener#contextInitialized(ServletContextEvent) */ public void contextInitialized(ServletContextEvent event) { // Never gets into the method because of the stack trace } -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
