NullPointerException in SessionMap.setAttribute
-----------------------------------------------
Key: MYFACES-1392
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-1392
Project: MyFaces Core
Issue Type: Bug
Components: General
Affects Versions: 1.1.3
Reporter: Mads Peter Henderson
I frequently - but far from always get a NPE when I use the variable resolver
to resolve a session scope variable. Does anyone have any idea of what I am
doing wrong?
The setup is this.
I have set up a session scope backing bean let's call it my myBean.
I have a servlet that generates graphic elements for some pages based on the
information in myBean.
In the servlet I do the following:
FacesContext facesContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
if (facesContext == null) {
FacesContextFactory fcf =
(FacesContextFactory)
FactoryFinder.getFactory(FactoryFinder.FACES_CONTEXT_FACTORY);
LifecycleFactory lifecycleFactory =
(LifecycleFactory)
FactoryFinder.getFactory(FactoryFinder.LIFECYCLE_FACTORY);
facesContext = fcf.getFacesContext(getServletContext(),
req,
resp,
lifecycleFactory.getLifecycle(LifecycleFactory.DEFAULT_LIFECYCLE ));
}
if (facesContext != null) {
VariableResolver vr = facesContext.getApplication().getVariableResolver();
if (vr != null) {
Object o = vr.resolveVariable(facesContext, "myBean");
}
}
As I started to say the line:
vr.resolveVariable(facesContext, "myBean");
somtimes throw a NPE with the following trace:
java.lang.NullPointerException
