原标题：org.springframework.expression.spel.SpelEvaluationException: EL1011E: Method call: Attempted to call method test() on null context object
前言本文中提到的解决方案，源码地址在：springboot-thymeleaf，希望可以帮你解决问题。
至于为什么已经写了一篇文章thymeleaf模板引擎调用java类中的方法，又多此一举的单独整理了这篇文章，是因为在解决此问题时首先搜索了一下关于此问题的文章，但是网上并没有搜到关于此问题的答案，因此自己做了整理。
问题描述在springboot与thymeleaf整合过程中，出现了如下报错：

... 80 common frames omitted通过异常栈可以得出有效信息：
Attempted to call method on null context object调用的方法处于一个空对象中，即调用实例为空。
thymeleaf的context，即提供数据的地方，基于web的context，即WebContext相对context增加 param,session,application变量，并且自动将request atttributes添加到context variable map，可以在模板直接访问。
针对于此异常，需要将期望调用的java实例存入thymeleaf的context域中，代码层面即为：将实例对象存入Request对象中。
我曾七次鄙视自己的灵魂:
第一次,当它本可进取时，却故作谦卑；
第二次,当它空虚时，用爱欲来填充；
第三次,在困难和容易之间，它选择了容易；
第四次,它犯了错，却借由别人也会犯错来宽慰自己；
第五次,它自由软弱，却把它认为是生命的坚韧；
第六次,当它鄙夷一张丑恶的嘴脸时，却不知那正是自己面具中的一副；
第七次,它侧身于生活的污泥中虽不甘心，却又畏首畏尾。
