Add support for Install items ----------------------------- Key: JBMICROCONT-165 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBMICROCONT-165 Project: JBoss MicroContainer Issue Type: Task Components: Dependency Reporter: Adrian Brock Assigned To: Ales Justin We already support contextual dependency injection (injected based on class) @Inject public void setSomething(X x); and installation into "repositories" <bean name="Queue1"> <install bean="JMSBroker" method="addQueue"/> </bean> There should be additional support for more dynamic injection/installation. In annotations the three new features are: 1) The injection is dynamic - the service will start even if the dependency is not satisifed - the service might get the injection later when it is available @Inject(optional=true) public void setSomething(X x); 2) Installation of "services" by type - Inject all implementors of a particular class - Keep reinjecting as implementors come and go - The cardinality specifies the minimum number that must exist for the service to start @Install(cardinality=0) public void setSomethings(Collection<X> x) 3) Like (2) but with add/remove methods @Install(cardinality=0) public void addSomething(X x) @Uninstall public void removeSomething(X x) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
