RequestContextHolder.getRequestAttributes() getting null after @Async

Question

We are using @Async for multithreading. Untill each multithreading method i can see values for RequestContextHolder.getRequestAttributes().

But when i debug inside the method i'm getting request attributes as NULL.

Any thoughts?

To get around this issue we created a ContextAwareRunnable Object that was pre-populated with the current requestHolder, securityContextHolder, etc, so that all spawned threads would be able to execute as if it were running in the main thread.
