FYI, there's a static utility method called "guicify" inside the com.google.inject.util.Jsr330 class that lets you turn a javax.inject.Provider object into a com.google.inject.Provider - for example: bind( Foo.class ).toProvider( Jsr330.guicify( myFooProviderObject ) ); This class also includes a "named" method which creates JSR330 @Named annotation objects.
