Annotation Type Inject

@Retention(value=RUNTIME)
@Target(value=METHOD)
public @interface Inject

Used to annotate a method as one that is used to inject a registered component into another component. The component to be constructed must be built using the ComponentFactory.construct(Class) method, or if your object that needs components injected into it already exists, it can be built using the ComponentRegistry.wireDependencies(Object) method.

Usage example:

       public class MyClass
       {
          private TransactionManager tm;
          private BuddyManager bm;
          private Notifier n;
 

          &Inject
          public void setTransactionManager(TransactionManager tm)
          {
             this.tm = tm;
          }
 

          &Inject
          public void injectMoreStuff(BuddyManager bm, Notifier n)
          {
             this.bm = bm;
             this.n = n;
          }
       }
 

 

and an instance of this class can be constructed and wired using

       MyClass myClass = componentFactory.construct(MyClass.class); // instance will have dependencies injected.
