Usage of @Inject or @EJB within AssetRendererFactory

[Martin Jonik, modificado hace 9 años.]

Hi all.

I developed a custom JSF Portlet and now I want to make use of Liferays Kaleo Worklflow Engine.
I added my own AssetRendererFactory and my own WorkflowHandler to liferay-portlet.xml.

The problem is I cannot use my own Services from these classes. Neither EJB nor CDI works.
Any hints?

public class CustomAssetRendererFactory extends BasesAssetRendererFactory {

@EJB
private CustomService ejbService;

@Inject
private CustomService cdiService;

}

Hi Martin,

did you try reading this Wiki entry about developing CDI portlets?

Also, please refer to my comment about CDIBeanManagerUtil in the thread titled CDI injection in 6.2 CE Tomcat.

Thank you, Neil. Works brilliant after I wrapped the EJB into a CDI bean.
It is also possible to make a normal InitialContext().lookup() call but anyway it would be nice to make use of all the annotations.

Hi Martin,

When you get a chance, could you provide updated code that shows how you wrapped the EJB into a CDI bean? I would be interested to see that.

Thank you,

Neil

it's nothing special. just that way:

@ApplicationScoped
public class CustomCdiBean {

@EJB
private CustomService;

public CustomService getService() {
return service;
}

}

public class CustomAssetRendererFactory extends BasesAssetRendererFactory {

public void anyMethod() {
 CustomCdiBean bean = CDIBeanManagerUtil.getManagedBeanReference(CustomCdiBean.class);
 CustomService service = bean.getService(); 
}

}

Maybe it would work that way as well...

@Stateless
@Local
@ApplicationScoped
public class CustomService() {

}

Hi Martin,

Thanks for posting the code.

Kind Regards,
