[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-114) Allow registration of beans at runtime

[Vincent Massol (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-114?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13366444#comment-13366444 ] 

Vincent Massol commented on CDI-114:
------------------------------------

{quote} since xwiki is dynamic it needs to control what was injected before to be able to update which is not in Spring/Guice/CDI as basic features (always done through proxies and as an internal bean impl).{quote}

In XWiki we do lazy instantiation of components, i.e. we instantiate them when they are required (ie. when the ComponentManager.getInstance() is called or when a component needs to be injected in another component). However we do not control what was injected before. FTR XWiki only supports field injection. Thus if you register a new implementation of a Component role at runtime, all existing components that have been instantiated already are not modified. However when a component needs to have an aways up to date @Inject(ed) field, we use a Provider<> and the code using it calls get() on it to return the latest registered component instance from the Component Manager.

BTW thanks for your replies! :)
