             Summary: HC Annotation should allow to configure "immediate" SCR 
property
                 Key: SLING-4417
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-4417
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Health Check
            Reporter: Georg Henzler


When using @SlingHealthCheck at the moment, the "immediate" property is left to 
"false" in the SCR descriptor which causes the component object to be created 
on every call of the health check (making it impossible to keep some state in a 
private member variable if desired). 

Let's make the immediate property configurable (the same way it would be 
provided in the @Component annotation) and make immediate="true" the default 
(this is a slight change in the behaviour that will not break existing code) 
for the following reasons:
- It's more intuitive to think of a HC as singleton (and hence be able to keep 
some instance variables)
- It's a tiny little bit better from a performance perspective (the instance 
does not have to be created on each execution)

The attached patch includes the (fairly simple) change to 
annotation(-processor) and the change for two sample components that were using 
@Component because of this issue.
