What is Dependency Injection: Dependency Injection is the main functionality provided ; by Spring |OC(Inversion of Control), The Spring-Core module is responsible for injecting dependencies through either Constructor or Setter methods. The design principle of Inversion of Control emphasizes keeping the Java classes independent of each other and the container frees them from object creation and maintenance. These classes, managed by Spring, must adhere to the standard definition of Java-Bean. Dependency Injection in Spring also ensures loose-coupling between the classes. Need for Dependency Injection: Suppose class One needs the object of class Two to instantiate or operate a method, then class One is said to be dependent on class Two. Now though it might appear okay to depend a module on the other but, in the real world, this could lead to a lot of problems, including system failure. Hence such dependencies need to be avoided Spring IOC resolves such dependencies with Dependency Injection, which makes the code easier to test and reuse. Loose coupling between classes can be possible by defining interfaces for common functionality and the injector will instantiate the objects of required implementation. The task of instantiating objects is done by the container according to the configurations specified by the developer. The Dependency Injection is a design pattern that removes the dependency of the programs. In such case we provide the information from the external source such as XML file, It makes our code loosely coupled and easier for testing. In such case we write the code as: 1. class Employee 2, Address address; B) 4, Employee(Address address){ 5. this.address=address; 6} 7. public void setAddress(Address address){ 8. this.address=address; } EBSInjection by Constructor dency by constructor. The subelement used for constructor injection. Here we are going to inject 1. primitive and String-based values 2. Dependent object (contained object) 3, Collection values etc. Injecting primitive and string-based values Let's see the simple example to inject primitive and string-based values. We have created three files here: ‘0 Employeejava ‘© applicationContextxm! co Testjava Itisa simple class containing two fields id and name, There are four constructors and ‘one method in this class. 1. package comjavatpoint; 25 3. public class Employee ( 4, private int id; 5. private String name; 6applicationContext.xml We are providing the information into the bean by this file. The constructor-arg element invokes the constructor. In such case, parameterized constructor of int type will be invoked. The value attribute of constructor-arg element will assign the specified value. The type attribute specifies that int parameter constructor will be invoked. 1. 2. |. 10. 11 12. 13. Test.javaThis class gets the bean from the applicationContextxmi file and calls the show method. 1. package comjavatpoint; 2 3. import org springframework beans. factory.BeanFactory; E 4 import ‘rg springframework.beans.factory.xml.XmIBeanFactory; s import org.springframework.coreio."; 6 7. public class Test ( 8. public static void main(String{] args) { a 10. Resource r=new ClassPathResource("applicationContext.xm"); 11. BeanFactory factory=new XmiBeanFactory(); 12, 13, Employee s=(Employee}factory getBean(e"); 14. sshowd; 15. 16. } 7.) Output:10 null Injecting string-based values 4f you don't specify the type attribute in the Constructor-arg element, by default string type constructor will be invoked. * I. Sewn, "you change the bean element as Given above, string parameter Constructor will be Invoked and the output will be 0 10, Output:0 10 You may aso pass the string literal as following:
