      create a minimal JSR 356 WebSocket endpoint class

      create a ServletContextListener that explicitly registers the WebSocket endpoint
      ServerContainer container = (ServerContainer)context.getServletContext().getAttribute(ServerContainer.class.getName());

    Description

      I am trying to use Errai WebSocket support running in Jetty by manually registering the WebSocket endpoint in a ServletContextListener using the following code:

       ServerContainer container = (ServerContainer)context.getServletContext().getAttribute(ServerContainer.class.getName());
      container.addEndpoint( ErraiWebSocketEndpoint.class);
      

      When the Jetty starts up and I try to access the WebSocket endpoint the following exception is thrown:

      This error appears to originate from Weld attempting to decorate the provide object by attempting to load the class definition from cache that in turns reflects on the class in an attempt to identify an injection compatible constructor. In this case the Jetty org.eclipse.jetty.websocket.jsr356.endpoints.EndpointInstance class does not have a CDI compatible constructor and in actuality does not have any CDI injection points either.

      After analysis of the Weld code base I made the attached minor alteration to abort constructor reflection for parameters if a CDI compatible constructor is not identified. Since DefaultInstantiator is coded to support a null constructor definition I believe the change is sound although I have not performed any extended testing beyond confirming it fixed the NPE above.
