hi Stuart, I was trying to look from some mathematical concepts by representing - OOP's inheritance by tree/graph structurtes(tree for single , and graph for multiple inheritence) with classes acting as each node. With functional programming - nodes are each block of code..
Dependency injection means- configuring some parameters into each of these nodes(whether its class or a piece of code, DI is independent concept). I dont know on how to improve, and things I wrote above may just be wrong(my own thought process). I just started to read Bertrand meyer's book- "Object Oriented software construction" which is simply awesome . -Hari Sujathan On Jun 16, 7:13 am, Stuart Halloway <stuart.hallo...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hari, > > I agree--dependency injection is not about OOP.
