Websphere V9.0.5.10 -WebServiceContext is null

Question

WebServiceContext object is null when Soap Services are deployed on WebSphere V9.0.5.10 .

I am trying to migrate the SOAP Web Services from WebSphere V8.5.5.20 to V9.0.5.10 and one of Web service is using WebServiceContext object to get the message context. The WebServiceContext and MessageContext objects are created as follows -

@Resource
WebServiceContext ctx;

public void getHeaderData(){
     MessageContext msgctx =  ctx.getMessageContext();   /// ctx is NULL
}

However, this code works on WebSphere V8.5.5.20 but throws NULLPointerException on V9.0.5.10 as WebServiceContext object is null.

I tried to inject the WebService Context as -

WebServiceContext ctx;

@Resource
public WebServiceContext setContext(WebServiceContext ctx){
         this.ctx = ctx;
}

but this code did not work.

The Exception Stack trace is -

java.lang.NullPointerException : null
