Request or Session scope in Spring Websocket

Question

From WebSocket Endpoint I try to call Singleton Service. But I an unable to use Request or Session scope from WebSocket.

(@Scope( value = "request", proxyMode = ScopedProxyMode.TARGET_CLASS))

I get Scope 'request' is not active for the current thread; For 'request' or 'session' scope on any 'ScopedProxyMode'.

Thanks for the help!

Answer 1

For web sockets there are no request/response so the request scope is invalid. They introduced new scope called websocket in Spring 4.1. @Scope(name = "websocket", proxyMode = ScopedProxyMode.TARGET_CLASS). Example reference link
