simple Servlet CDI generating NullPointerException - servlets

Question

I am working on sample application called bookstore where I have used Dependency Injection. Very simple application. I am using JavaEE 6, GlassFish 3.1.2, Static data in a class (no db), Eclipse Juno.
I can provide more info if needed.
Error I get:
WARNING: StandardWrapperValve[com.bookstore.web.BookListServlet]: PWC1406: Servlet.service() for servlet com.bookstore.web.BookListServlet threw exception
java.lang.NullPointerException
at com.bookstore.web.BookListServlet.doGet(BookListServlet.java:29)
at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:668)
This I know is Dependency is not injected. Class instance is not created to use it. If I remove #Inject and created an instance of a class than the page is loading fine.
Servlet code generating error: See bold comments
package com.bookstore.web;
import java.io.IOException;
import javax.inject.Inject;
import javax.servlet.ServletException;
import javax.servlet.annotation.WebServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
import com.bookstore.BookRepositoryImp;
#WebServlet("/book/")
public class BookListServlet extends HttpServlet {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
#Inject
private BookRepositoryImp bookRepo;
public BookListServlet() {
super();
}
protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res) throws ServletException,
IOException {
**//bookRepo = new BookRepositoryImp(); If uncommect this code and remove #Inject than page working fine**
req.setAttribute("books", bookRepo.listBooks());
String path = "/WEB-INF/pages/book-list.jsp";
getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher(path).forward(req, res);
}
protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res) throws ServletException,
IOException {
}
}

Have you tried moving your beans.xml file into the WEB-INF folder where your web.xml lives, maybe for some reason your beans.xml file is not copied properly to the resulting war file.
