org.jboss.cache.factories.annotations
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 org.jboss.cache.factories.ComponentFactory#construct(Class) method, or if your object that needs components injected into it already exists, it can be built using the org.jboss.cache.factories.ComponentFactory#wireComponents(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.
 

If you wish to use named components, you can use the optional ComponentName annotation on each parameter.
