CDI Injection not working in WebSphere Containers (V8)

Hi,

I have gone through ARQ-1488 and it depicts the same problem what I am facing.

In my IBM WebSphere Application Server (8.0.0.9), CDI is not working and it is giving me the NP exception.

Please note I am not using MAVEN build but have all required JARS file in my web-inf/lib directory

catch (final NullPointerException npe)

{ Assert.fail("Injection failed."); }

Assert.assertNotNull(stringRepresentation);

}

}

Exception I am getting
-----------------------------
Null Pointer exception in stringRepresentation = this.b.toString(); as b is null.

Most Important Thing
------------------------------
I have commented out the code in WebSphereRemoteContainer.java (for WAS 8 - https://github.com/arquillian/arquillian-container-was) which is responsible for deploying and un-deploying the code.

For our requirements, the code is already deployed and all we need to run the test on PRE DEPLOYED code only.

Methods which I have modified
1. public ProtocolMetaData deploy(final Archive<?> archive) throws DeploymentException

2. public void undeploy(final Archive<?> archive) throws DeploymentException

I have just commented out the code which install / uninstall the application.

Can someone help me in getting this issue resolved.
Please let me know if I need to provide more information for debugging purpose.
