Hello all,
According to this tutorial
https://www.logicbig.com/tutorials/core-java-tutorial/modules/service-provider-method.html
we can declare in module-info provider class with "provider" method. For
example,
......
public class TheServiceProvider {
public static AService provider() {
return new AServiceImpl();
}
}
The only thing what I don’t understand is why this method is called "provider".
The method doesn’t return
provider, method returns an instance of the service, so, as I understand, the
method must be named
"provide". And, as I understand, provider is usually the class, that has
"provide" method.
Of course that’s not very important, but it is JDK, so it was developed by very
experienced java developer
who should know java naming convention and I want to understand why this did
so. Could anyone explain?
