Dependency Injection: Questions-And-Answers - html#2

Dependency injection in Spring allows components to have their dependencies satisfied externally rather than internally. This is done by describing dependencies in a configuration file rather than hardcoding them in code. The container is then responsible for satisfying the dependencies. There are two main types of dependency injection - constructor injection, where dependencies are passed via a class constructor, and setter injection, where dependencies are passed via setter methods. The best practice is to use constructor injection for mandatory dependencies and setter injection for optional dependencies.

18. What is Dependency Injection in Spring?


Dependency Injection, an aspect of Inversion of Control (IoC), is a general
concept, and it can be expressed in many different ways.This concept says that
you do not create your objects but describe how they should be created. You
dont directly connect your components and services together in code but
describe which services are needed by which components in a configuration file.
A container (the IOC container) is then responsible for hooking it all up.

19. What are the different types of IoC (dependency


injection)?

Constructor-based dependency injection: Constructor-based DI is


accomplished when the container invokes a class constructor with a number
of arguments, each representing a dependency on other class.
Setter-based dependency injection: Setter-based DI is accomplished
by the container calling setter methods on your beans after invoking a noargument constructor or no-argument static factory method to instantiate
your bean.

20. Which DI would you suggest Constructor-based or


setter-based DI?
You can use both Constructor-based and Setter-based Dependency Injection. The
best solution is using constructor arguments for mandatory dependencies and
setters for optional dependencies.
