CDI/Weld unable to do constructor injection of RESTEasy resource

I'm trying to combine RESTEasy with Weld on AppEngine but having troubles to do constructor injection.

I've added the RESTEasy CdiInjectorFactory context param and the Weld servlet listener.

My RESTEasy application class looks like:

public class MyApplication extends Application {

    @Override
    public Set<Class<?>> getClasses() {
        HashSet<Class<?>> classes = new HashSet<Class<?>>();
        classes.add(CustomerResource.class);
        return classes;
    }
}

and the CustomerResource:

@Path("/rest/app/customers")
public class CustomerResource {

    private final CustomerService customerService;

    @Inject
    public CustomerResource(CustomerService customerService) {
        this.customerService = customerService;
    }

    ..
}

The CustomerService is a simple service like:

public class CustomerService {

    public List<Customer> getCustomers() {
        ..
    }
}

When I start up the server I see in the log:

[INFO] 2014-01-30 21:34:53 INFO  org.jboss.weld.Version:146 - WELD-000900: 2.1.2 (Final)

From this logging I can see that my RESTEasy application and the resources class are discovered. Note that I don't see any mention about the CustomerService.

When I access my resource in the browser I get:

[INFO] 2014-01-30 21:47:26 DEBUG org.jboss.resteasy.cdi.CdiInjectorFactory:68 - Using CdiConstructorInjector for class class com.mycomp.config.MyApplication.

Is RESTEasy trying to create a new CustomerResource instance and not picking it from Weld?

I also tried with field injection (instead of constructor injection) and then I can see the CustomerService is nicely injected in the CustomerResource.

I only prefer constructor injection and wonder if this is supported in RESTEasy resource classes when using Weld?

JAX-RS requires a no arg constructor for your rest resources. You can have other constructors, but you need to also have a no-arg constructor.
