Nullpointer exception when posting a form due to unconnected datasourceManager

I get a Nullpointer exception on posting a form with a formdefinition that is defined in a jsp-file.
This Nullpointer exception is caused by due to a not set myDatasourceManager.

The error shown in the log is:

The used code looks something like this:

private DataSourceManager myDatasourceManager;

/**
* @param webid
* @return String
*/
private String getSecretKey(String webid) {
...

Connection connection = null;
PreparedStatement statement = null;

LOG.warning("DESHTTPResponseHandler.java: GO CONNECT: " + DATASOURCE);

try {
LOG.warning("DESHTTPResponseHandler.java: GO CONNECT-AAA-1");
DataSource xxx = myDatasourceManager.getDataSource(DATASOURCE);

LOG.warning("DESHTTPResponseHandler.java: GO CONNECT-BBB");
connection = xxx.getConnection();

LOG.warning("DESHTTPResponseHandler.java: GO CONNECT-CCC");


statement = connection.prepareStatement(query);
statement.setString(1, webid);
ResultSet rs = statement.executeQuery();

if (rs.next()) {
secretKey = rs.getString("chess_secret");
}

} catch (SQLException e) {
LOG.warning("SQL Exception caught :" + e.getMessage());
} finally {
try {
Utility.close(statement, connection);
} catch (SQLException e) {/* ignore */
}
}

return secretKey;

}

/**
* @param datasourceManager
*/
public void setDatasourceManager(DataSourceManager datasourceManager) {
this.myDatasourceManager = datasourceManager;
}


One never reaches: LOG.warning("DESHTTPResponseHandler.java: GO CONNECT-BBB").


Does anyone have some ideas why the datasourceManager is not connected?
What is the correct way to set the datasourceManager?

Ron,

did you see http://connect.gxsoftware.com/Forums/Forum-WCB-Java-Development.htm?db....

Try to add the set a dependency on the DataSourceManager in the Activator, so it will be injected.
