 Good news!

 Chances of custom attributes[1] (or something like this) in release 3.0?
 I have plans to use IoC[2] and DI using this feature.


 I created a IoC Container that can be found at
 https://code.google.com/p/luipack/source/browse/trunk/luicomponents/luiioccontainer.pas
 . It has no dependencies.


Awesome!

With it is possible to implement Service Locator and Property Injection
 patterns. Constructor Injection is not possible due to lacking of Extended
 RTTI support in fpc.


Can you send a small (and isolated) sample showing how to use it?


 While the C# crowd  praises the Constructor Injection pattern (
 http://www.devtrends.co.uk/blog/how-not-to-do-dependency-injection-the-static-or-singleton-container
 ), i had hard times figuring how it would work in real world / Lazarus
 projects. Also, polluting the constructor  signature is not something that
 i like. And finally with Constructor Injection is not possible to use with
 TComponent / TForm

 So in the end, i use the service locator and have plans to use Property
 Injection pattern

 BTW: Custom Attributes support would help to have a nicer Property
 Injection implementation


I've plan to use something like this (CDI inspirations: http://cdi-spec.org
):

The model:

uses
  My.Company.MySDK.EntityAttributes, My.Company.MySDK.TableAttributes ...;
type
  [Entity]
  [Table('products')]
  TProduct = class(TObject)
  public
[Id][GeneratedValue]
property Id: LongInt ...;
[ManyToOne][JoinColumn('OrderId')]
property OrderId: LontInt ...;
[NotNull][NotEmpty][Size(1, 10)][Unique]
property Name: String ...;
[Nulls][Lenght(100)][Unique]
property Description: String ...;
[MyCustomCurrConversion(TypeInfo(Currency), TypeInfo(String), ',0.00')]
[MyCustomMinMax('Price must be = %d and = %d.', [1, 1000])]
property Price: Currency ...;
  end;


The DAO:

type
  [RequestScoped]
  TProductDao = class(TObject)
  private
[Inject] property Session: TSession ... ;
[Transational] procedure Add(AProduct: TProduct);
...
  end;
...procedure TProductDao.Add(AProduct: TProduct);begin
  Session.Save(AProduct);end;


The *produces* (to use external libs like *JCore*):

type
  [ApplicationScoped]
  TSessionCreator = class(TObject)
  private
[Inject] property SessionFactory: TJCoreSession ... ;
[Produces] function GetSession: TSession;
...
  end;
...
TSessionCreator.GetSession: TSession;begin
  Result := ASessionFactory.OpenSession;end;

TSessionCreator.Close([Disposes]ASession: TSession) {begin  if
ASession.IsOpenASession.Close;end;


The controller:

uses
  My.Company.ControllerAttributes ... ;
type
  [Controller]
  TProcuctController = class(TObject)
  public
[Post][Transational] procedure Add([Valid] AProduct: TProduct); //
[Valid]: to validade properties
[Get][Path('./product')][Transational] procedure
List([Pagination('page={[0-9]}rows={[0-9]}')] AProducts:
TArrayListTProduct); // to paginate products
[Inject] property ProductDao: TProductDao ...; // inject DAO
[Inject] property Result: TResponse ...; // inject Response
  end;
...
procedure TProcuctController.Add(AProduct: TProduct);begin
  ProductDao.Add(AProduct);
  Result.SetAttribute(AProduct,
'product').RedirectTo(TProductController).List;end;
procedure TProcuctController.List(AProducts: TArrayListTProduct);begin
  Result.SetAttribute(AProducts, 'products'); // to create a variable
products in my BSP viewend;


The view:

html
ul
c:forEach items=${products} var=product
li ${product.name} - fmt:currency value=${product.price}
mask=R$ ,0.00//li
/c:forEach
/ul
/html


But I think that I'll still wait some years to make it possible in Free
Pascal hehe ...

There's a demo in demos/ioccontainer folder

In a real project, in the app start, i do:

  FPresentations := TPresentationManager.Create(Self);
  Services.Register(IPresentationManager, FPresentations);

When i need the service i do:

  FPresentations :=
IPresentationManager(Services.Resolve(IPresentationManager));

The global, nor the actual implementation is exposed, making easier to test.
There's still a dependency to the container (Services), this is the whole
point of criticism to service locator pattern.
In the other side there always be a place where the dependency is set, even
in other DI patterns.

BTW: Custom Attributes support would help to have a nicer Property
 Injection implementation


 I've plan to use something like this (CDI inspirations:
 http://cdi-spec.org):


Seems a full ORM plus a MVC like framework.

I'm more modest. I use these classes to make modular code thus a bit more
maintanable.

All in all i use the IoC container little, in my project i register only
two interfaces. In other places, i configure the dependency manually

 Interesting.
 Could you give us some example how this class works?


There's a demo in demos/ioccontainer

In a working project i use a IPresentationManager
https://code.google.com/p/luipack/source/browse/trunk/luicontrols/presentationmanager.pas#36

When a class needs to use it, resolves from a TIoCContainer (Service
Locator pattern). The global variable and concrete class are not exposed.
In the other hand depends of the IoCContainer. I have plans to switch to a
Property Injection pattern that helps to decouple a bit more.
