Hello all,
I'm trying to use Restlet 1.0.3 in a servlet environment. But I'm getting the
following NPE when the application is starting up:
2007-07-18 20:20:04.701::WARN: Nested in javax.servlet.ServletException:
java.lang.NullPointerException:
java.lang.NullPointerException

at
com.noelios.restlet.ext.servlet.ServerServlet.init(ServerServlet.java:375)
at javax.servlet.GenericServlet.init(GenericServlet.java:241)
I've tracked it down and it seems to stem from the attempt to create the
application trying to use a reference to the application yet to be created:
application = (Application) targetClass.getConstructor(
Context.class).newInstance(
new ServletContextAdapter(this, application,
context));
I'm not sure what the intent is here. I can probably work around the problem
for now by having an empty constructor on my Application class. Is there
anything I'll miss out by doing that?
