I started with wanting to create a Chain of service instances using an ordered contribution point. Unlike usual though, the implementation isn't custom each time. Instead, there's multiple repeat uses of an implementation which does different work based on a String supplied it. This String also happens to be unique to it and can be its ServiceId.
I was thinking I'd end up able to do something like this: > orderedConfiguration.addInstance("SomeService", > PremadeRepeatUseImpl.class, "before:SomeOtherService,after:DiffService"); a different module... > orderedConfiguration.addInstance("AnotherService", PremadeRepeatUseImpl.class, > "before:SomeService"); What the PremadeServiceImpl class needs to know is the string: "SomeService". I was hoping it could receive the ID because otherwise I must create the instance manually and feed it the String. My goal is to make it simple for a new Module to addin and contribute more instances. One contrib method with one line and TapIoC autobuilds all the instances and injects the desired params. Then the root Module uses the contribs to build the chain with ChainBuilder. Without it being able to learn it through some automatic means I ended up with the below. It uses a builder method which uses its method name to assign the service ID and constructs the instance directly. Then, inject the built instance into the contrib method via InjectService and use add() instead of addInstance(): public static PremadeInterface buildSomeService(..inject the constructor > needs...) > return new PremadeServiceImpl("SomeService", provide needs...); It works, but, use of the ID is repetitive and has some unsafe uses, like, the method name, which can't use a constant value. And it looks a little odd.
