Explicit Constructor

class Stopwatch { final TimeSource timeSource; Stopwatch () { timeSource = new AtomicClock(...); } void start() { ... } long stop() { ... }}

Using a Factory

class Stopwatch {

final TimeSource timeSource; Stopwatch () {

timeSource = DefaultTimeSource.getInstance();

}

void start() { ... }

long stop() { ... }

}

www.catmedia.us

Somewhat like in java.util.Calendar

Mock Data

void testStopwatch() { TimeSource original = DTS.getInstance(); DefaultTimeSource.setInstance(new MockTimeSource());

try {Stopwatch sw = new Stopwatch();

... } finally { DTS.setInstance(original); } }

@Inject

class Stopwatch { final TimeSource timeSource; @Inject Stopwatch(TimeSource timeSource) {

this.timeSource = TimeSource; } void start() { ... } long stop() { ... } }

JSR-330

@Inject Identifies injectable constructors, methods, and fields .

This works for both static and non-static elements. @Qualifier

Identifies qualifier annotations to declare binding types of your API

@Named A name (string) based qualifier Others may be declared application - or domain-specific

Definition

Page 7: Context and Dependency Injection

JSR-330

@Provider Provides instances of an (injectable) type. Allows

Retrieving multiple instances. Lazy or optional retrieval of an instance. Breaking circular dependencies. Abstracting scope

@Singleton Identifies a type that the injector only instantiates once. See the well-known Design Pattern

JSR-330

1. Minimal but usable API: A small API surface seems more important than making it as convenient as possible for clients. There are only two methods in the proposed API that could be considered convenience, added because they seemed to pull their weight

InjectionConfigurer.inject and InjectionSpec.inject(Object)

2. Builder-style API: so-called "fluent APIs“• Open to other styles.

Configuration

Page 10: Context and Dependency Injection

JSR-330

3. Abstract classes instead of interfaces: 2 main types (InjectionConfigurer and InjectionSpec) are abstract classes

instead of interfaces. This allows new methods to be added later in a binary-

compatible way.

4. Separate configuration API• The API does not specify how an instance of

InjectionConfigurer is obtained. • Otherwise we have to standardize the injector API itself,

something outside of the stated scope of JSR-330.www.catmedia.us 10

Configuration (2)

Page 11: Context and Dependency Injection

JSR-330

5. Names are different from Guice's configuration API: This is mostly

to keep this separate from existing configuration APIs, but also so

that new concepts (like "Binding") don't have to be defined.

JSR-299

The lifecycle and interactions of stateful components bound to well-defined lifecycle contexts, where the set of contexts is extensible

A sophisticated, type safe dependency injection mechanism, including a facility for choosing between various components that implement the same Java interface at deployment time

An event notification model

www.catmedia.us 14

Services

Page 15: Context and Dependency Injection

JSR-299

Integration with the Unified Expression Language (EL), allowing any component to be used directly within a JSF or JSP page

The ability to decorate injected components A web conversation context in addition to the three

standard web contexts defined by the Java Servlets specification

An SPI allowing portable extensions to integrate cleanly with the Java EE environment

JSR-299

A (nonempty) set of bean types A (nonempty) set of bindings A scope A deployment type Optionally, a bean EL name A set of interceptor bindings A bean implementation

www.catmedia.us 18

Bean Attributes

Page 19: Context and Dependency Injection

JSR-299

• A custom implementation of Context may be associated with a scope type by calling BeanManager.addContext().

public void addContext(Context context);

www.catmedia.us 19

Context

Page 20: Context and Dependency Injection

JSR-299

• BeanManager.getContext() retrieves an active context object associated with the a given scope:

public Context getContext(Class<? extends Annotation> scopeType);

→ Context used in a broader meaning than some other parts of Java (Enterprise)

Context (2)

Page 21: Context and Dependency Injection

JSR-299

@SessionScoped

public class PaymentStrategyProducer {

private PaymentStrategyType paymentStrategyType;

public void setPaymentStrategyType(

PaymentStrategyType type) {

paymentStrategyType = type;

}

JSR-299

• Then the following observer method will always be notified of the event:

• public void afterLogin(@Observes LoggedInEvent event) { ... }

• Whereas this observer method may or may not be notified, depending upon the value of user.getRole():

• public void afterAdminLogin(@Observes @Role("admin") LoggedInEvent event) { ... }

www.catmedia.us 24

Event Observer

Page 25: Context and Dependency Injection

JSR-299

• As elsewhere, binding types may have annotation members:

@BindingType@Target(PARAMETER)@Retention(RUNTIME)public @interface Role {String value();

}

Event Binding

JSR-299

Actually @Role could extend @Named from JSR-330 JSRs here potentially not consequently streamlined…?

Event Binding (2)

JSR-299

public interface Bean<T>extends Contextual<T> {public Set<Type> getTypes();public Set<Annotation> getBindings();public Class<? extends Annotation>

Portable Extensions
