Constructor Dependency Injection ...... eh?

I am about to start some serious J2EE stuff and plan to use the Spring framework to help me glue it all together.

To this end I am reading Pro Spring, which is a big fat book on the subject. In chapter four I came across the following paragraph.

Constructor Dependency Injection
Constructor Dependency Injection is Dependency Injection where a component's dependencies are provided to it in its constructor(s). The component declares a constructor or a set of constructors taking as arguments its dependencies, and the IoC container passes the dependencies to the component when it instantiates it as show in Listing 4-4.


Hmmmmmmmm ...

If I put the paragraph through the Babelfish translator into Greek it comes out like this:

Η έγχυση εξάρτησης κατασκευαστών είναι έγχυση εξάρτησης όπου οι εξαρτήσεις ενός συστατικού παρέχονται σε την στον κατασκευαστή της (σ). Το συστατικό δηλώνει έναν κατασκευαστή ή ένα σύνολο κατασκευαστών που παίρνουν ως επιχειρήματα τις εξαρτήσεις του, και το εμπορευματοκιβώτιο IoC περνούν τις εξαρτήσεις στο συστατικό όταν instantiates αυτό ως παρουσιάζει στη λίστα 4-4

I don't know about you but I feel a bit better now.

Death by XML Confiuguration files

If a tree falls in an XML configuration file, does it make a sound?
