 No distributed configuration?

Of course there is! Any module from any pod (jar) can contribute to
services defined in any other module from any other pod. That is
distributed configuration, right? That was built in from the get go!

 Well, I hope you had a chance to address some of the things that are not
perfect in T5 IoC!

I addressed a few (of what I felt were) shortcomings, tidied up the API a
little, and tried to keep the API to 'core' functionality. A couple of
subtle differences include:

 - configuration overrides may themselves be overridden
 - ctor params may be passed into Registry.autobuild()
 - emphasis on annotations (facets) and not naming conventions

I learnt a lot from the project and now certainly appreciate the recursive
complexity involved in maintaining an IoC registry!

Cheers,

Steve.

2013-08-07 Thread Howard Lewis Ship
I have some ideas for a next-generation IoC that I hope to put together
someday (outside of Tapestry).  I want to create something with a different
level of granularity, were you are injecting functions, not services. There
would be a whole lot of generics gymnastics to figure out how to map from a
generic function interface to a static or instance method of a class that
is exposed for injection, with lots of annotations to be used to
disambiguate. Unfortunately, this is pretty far down my list of things to
work on!

You probably want to wait for Java 8 and its first class functions aka  
functional interfaces and lambdas. :) A nice description of that and other  
Java 8 improvements are here:  
http://www.techempower.com/blog/2013/03/26/everything-about-java-8/. I  
can't wait for them.


By the way, even if your future project is independent from T-IoC, T-IoC  
could integrate it, just like it does with Plastic. :)

[OT] T5-IoC in Fantom

2013-08-06 Thread Steve Eynon
Hello,

If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery then T5-IoC has been paid a
huge compliment...

...there's an IoC in the language Fantom that bears a striking resemblance
to T5-IoC!
