Injection on fields can only after construction. Try doing the
following instead:
private HttpServletRequest httpRequest;
public MyResource(@Context HttpServletRequest httpRequest) {
this.httpRequest = httpRequest;
httpRequest.getSession().setAttribute("securityenabled",
"true");//fails due to NPE
}
