I am using gwt dispatch to communicate and get data from server to client.

In order to get user specific data I want to store the user object in httpsession and access application specific data from servlet context

but when I inject Provider<HttpSession> when the handler execute is called but the dispatchservlet the provider is null i.e it does not get injected.

following is the code from my action handler

@Inject
Provider<HttpSession>   provider;

public ReadEntityHandler() {

} 

@Override
public EntityResult execute(ReadEntityAction arg0, ExecutionContext arg1) throws DispatchException {
    HttpSession session = null;
    if (provider == null)
        System.out.println("httpSession is null..");
    else {
        session = provider.get();
        System.out.println("httpSession not null..");
    }
    System.out.println("reached execution");
    return null;
}

and my Dispatch servlet

@Singleton
public class ActionDispatchServlet extends RemoteServiceServlet implements StandardDispatchService {

    private Dispatch    dispatch;


    public ActionDispatchServlet() {
        InstanceActionHandlerRegistry registry = new DefaultActionHandlerRegistry();
        registry.addHandler(new ReadEntityHandler());
        dispatch = new SimpleDispatch(registry);
    }

    @Override
    public Result execute(Action<?> action) throws DispatchException {
        try {
            return dispatch.execute(action);
        }
        catch (RuntimeException e) {
            log("Exception while executing " + action.getClass().getName() + ": " + e.getMessage(), e);
            throw e;
        }
    }
}

when I try to inject the ReadEntityHandler it throws the following exception

[WARN] failed guiceFilter
com.google.inject.ProvisionException: Guice provision errors:
