Hi,

If have a simple POJO like this:

package mypkg;
import java.io.PrintStream;
class Foo {
     private PrintStream printStream;
     public void setPrintStream(PrintStream out) {
          this.printStream = out;
     }
     public void run() {
          printStream.println("test");
     }
}


Now how would I inject the System.out into the bean in deployment? If do this, it gives me error on creating  
JavaLangSystem bean, which make sense since it's constructor is private.

   <bean name="JavaLangSystem" access-mode="FIELDS" />
   <bean name="Foo" class="mypkg.Foo">
     <property name="printStream"><inject bean="JavaLangSystem" property="out"/></property>
     <start method="run" />
   </bean>


So is there way I can quickly inject a static field in a class that has private constructor?

I do see some example that use a value-factory and a provider class like here  http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/jbossas/projects/demos/microcontainer/trunk/ioc/src/main/resources/META-INF/access-mode-beans.xml http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/jbossas/projects/demos/microcontainer/trunk/ioc/src/main/resources/META-INF/access-mode-beans.xml, but it seems too involved to get a simple thing like this to be  injected. Did I missed something?

Thanks,
Z
