EJB injection into Restful service (NullPointerException)

Question

I' have a problem with injecting StoreBean into Restful service. I have reduecd code little bit to get a point.

Here is the code(DataStoreBean):

@Local(DataStore.class)
@Stateless
public class DataStoreBean implements DataStore
{
     public String get()
     {
        return "works";
     }
}

and here is code for RestEndpoint:

@RequestScoped
@Path("/DataStore")
@Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
@Consumes(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
public class DataStoreRestEndpoint
{

@EJB
DataStoreBean dataStore;


    @GET
    @Path("/test")
    public String get()
    {
       return dataStore.get();
    }

 }

When I executed I always get a NPE.

     Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException

Declare the restful class with @Stateless, too. Here is an example: Inject an EJB into JAX-RS (RESTful service)
