I am developing my first EJB 3 application using JBOSS 7 as application server in Eclipse. The session bean is deployed successfully on the server but when i try to access it from the JSP page, then i get the java.lang.NullPointerException exception.

Following is my code:

Local Interface:

package my.first;

import javax.ejb.Local;

@Local
public interface CalculatorRemote {

     public float add(float x, float y);

     public float subtract(float x, float y);

     public float multiply(float x, float y);

     public float division(float x, float y);
}

Session bean:

package my.first;

    import javax.ejb.LocalBean;
    import javax.ejb.Stateless;

    @Stateless(name = "CalculatorRemote")
    public class CalculatorBean implements CalculatorRemote {
        public float add(float x, float y) {
            return x + y;
        }

        public float subtract(float x, float y) {
            return x - y;
        }

        public float multiply(float x, float y) {
            return x * y;
        }

        public float division(float x, float y) {
            return x / y;
        }
    }

JSP Page:

     <%!
      private CalculatorRemote calculator = null;
      float result=0;

      public void jspInit() {
      try {

      InitialContext ic = new InitialContext();

      calculator = (CalculatorRemote) ic
      .lookup("CalculatorRemote/Local");


      System.out.println("Loaded Calculator Bean");
    //CalculatorBean

      } catch (Exception ex) {
      System.out.println("Error:"+
      ex.getMessage());
      }
      }
      public void jspDestroy() {
      calculator = null;
      }
    %>
