Hi list, Tobias and I just had a first meeting about an old issue we've been wanting to tackle for a while: IoC in Magnolia. If this means nothing to you, perhaps this reference will help: http://wiki.magnolia-cms.com/display/DEV/Concept+IOC+in+Magnolia
We're going to branch the trunk and experiment a little, hoping to demonstrate the following: * feasibility and backwards compatibility - get a feel of how much work it means for core, and get a feel of the impact on modules. Ideally, we want modules to be 100% compatible (good practices will come naturally, or so we hope) * demonstrate basic DI mechanisms (perhaps via a model in the sample modules), configuration properties resolution, and impacts on content2bean. * how modules can contribute objects/components (and perhaps associated factories) We'll be evaluating PicoContainer and Guice for this; if you have other suggestions, please chime in! (only constraint: we want something ultra-lightweight, sorry Spring fans;)) Cheers, -g ---------------------------------------------------------------- For list details see http://www.magnolia-cms.com/home/community/mailing-lists.html To unsubscribe, E-mail to: <dev-list-unsubscr...@magnolia-cms.com> ----------------------------------------------------------------
