Struts2 ExecAndWait NullPointerException

Question

我在ExecuAndWait使用过Struts2

我在设置操作中的属性（长时间运行）时收到错误NPE

这是堆栈跟踪：

java.lang.NullPointerException

来源片段：

行动类：

public String createSite() throws Exception
    {
        ----

        HttpServletRequest request = ServletActionContext.getRequest();
        request.setAttribute("test", "test"); {At this line I got error}
        ---
    }

来自ExecuteAndWaitInterceptor.java

231            if ((!executeAfterValidationPass || secondTime) && bp == null) {
232                bp = getNewBackgroundProcess(name, actionInvocation, threadPriority);
233                session.put(KEY + name, bp);
234                performInitialDelay(bp); // first time let some time pass before showing wait page
235                secondTime = false;
236            }

来自BackgroundProcess.java

public More ...BackgroundProcess(String threadName, final ActionInvocation invocation, int threadPriority) {
50         this.invocation = invocation;
51         this.action = invocation.getAction();
52         try {
53             final Thread t = new Thread(new Runnable() {
54                 public void More ...run() {
55                     try {
56                         beforeInvocation();
57                         result = invocation.invokeActionOnly();
58                         afterInvocation();
59                     } catch (Exception e) {
60                         exception = e;
61                     }
62 
63                     done = true;
64                 }
65             });
66             t.setName(threadName);
67             t.setPriority(threadPriority);
68             t.start();
69         } catch (Exception e) {
70             exception = e;
71         }
72     }

Struts2 ExecuteAndWait的概念每当有一个长时间运行的请求时，它将在separate thread中执行并返回结果返回WAIT，所以客户端再次在某个时间间隔内重新提交相同的请求以了解其进程的状态（在线程中运行）

我的问题：在上面的情况下，主要请求（启动线程调用操作）返回WAIT并且其他请求在我的动作类中此时再次知道动作状态我有request.setAttribute("test", "test");，在这一行它抛出一个错误，我上面提到过。
