Description

Hey folks.

We found a weird behavior while running MVC specification(JSR 371) on TomEE witch CXF. We have a ContainerRequestFilter defined called JaxRsContextFilter

@PreMatching
@Priority(0)
public class JaxRsContextFilter implements ContainerRequestFilter {
    @Inject
    private JaxRsContextProducer jaxRsContextProducer;
    @Context
    private Configuration configuration;
    @Context
    private HttpServletRequest request;
    @Context
    private HttpServletResponse response;

    public JaxRsContextFilter() {
    }

    public void filter(ContainerRequestContext requestContext) throws IOException {
        this.jaxRsContextProducer.populate(this.configuration, this.request, this.response);
    }
}

You can see that we have a JaxRsContextProducer annotated to be injected as a field in our object but when JAXRSUtils is called to run the the container filters it injects the fields annotated as @Context , not the fields annotated with @Inject.

 for (ProviderInfo<ContainerRequestFilter> filter : containerFilters) {
                try {
                    InjectionUtils.injectContexts(filter.getProvider(), filter, m);
                    filter.getProvider().filter(context);
                } catch (IOException ex) {
                    throw ExceptionUtils.toInternalServerErrorException(ex, null); 
                }

It causes our filter(JaxRsContextFilter) to throw a NullPointerException when filtering the request because it uses the producer to perform some actions in this operation.

I believe this field should be injected as well, not only the @Context fields.
