Hello,
I stumbled upon an unexpected NPE (at least according to the JavaDoc)
from JAXB when calling a JMX operation remotely (from jconsole) which
calls a method on a Singleton EJB within GFv3.0.1.
Basically, during PostConstruct of the Singleton EJB I register an
MBean for configuration. During the construction of that MBean, I
pass it a reference to the Singleton (using
SessionContext.getBusinessObject()). During runtime, I remote in with
JMX and invoke an operation on the JMX which proxies a callback to a
method on the Singleton. Normally, this work out quite well. The
problem is when I add JAXB to the mix. If I used JAXB in that
Singleton, I get a NPE when trying to instantiate the JAXBContext
using .newInstance(MyClass.class). (in production code, I am
unmarshalling the stream response from a remote URL, in my demo app it
is a local XML file **just for testing, I know what the spec says
=)**)
I know the method works normally, because if I add a timer to the
Singleton, it executes just fine before and after I invoke the JMX
operation.
The following is the Exception I am getting. I have a sample
application I attached (and can post elsewhere if needed) that
recreates this issue.
Any thoughts? I haven't submitted a bug report yet...wanted to get
some peer review first.
Thanks!
Steve
