| /** |
| * Annotates a method used to configure dynamic dependencies. |
| * When this method is invoked, all required dependencies (except the ones declared with a <code>name</code> |
| * attribute) are already injected, and optional dependencies on class fields |
| * are also already injected (possibly with NullObjects). |
| * |
| * The purpose of the @Init method is to either declare more dynamic dependencies using the DM API, or to |
| * return a Map used to dynamically configure dependencies that are annotated using a <code>name</code> attribute. |
| * |
| * After the init method returns, the added or configured dependencies are then tracked, and when all dynamic |
| * dependencies are injected, then the start method (annotated with @Start) is then invoked. |
| * |
| * <h3>Usage Examples</h3> |
| * In this sample, the "PersistenceImpl" component dynamically configures the "storage" dependency from the "init" method. |
| * The dependency "required" flag and filter string are derived from an xml configuration that is already injected before the init |
| * method. |
| * |
| * <blockquote> |
| * <pre> |
| * |
| * @Component |
| * public class PersistenceImpl implements Persistence { |
| * // Injected before init. |
| * @ServiceDependency |
| * LogService log; |
| * |
| * // Injected before init. |
| * @ConfigurationDependency |
| * void updated(Dictionary conf) { |
| * if (conf != null) { |
| * _xmlConfiguration = parseXmlConfiguration(conf.get("xmlConfiguration")); |
| * } |
| * } |
| * |
| * // Parsed xml configuration, where we'll get our storage service filter and required dependency flag. |
| * XmlConfiguration _xmlConfiguration; |
| * |
| * // Injected after init (dependency filter is defined dynamically from our init method). |
| * @ServiceDependency(name="storage") |
| * Storage storage; |
| * |
| * // Dynamically configure the dependency declared with a "storage" name. |
| * @Init |
| * Map<String, String> init() { |
| * log.log(LogService.LOG_WARNING, "init: storage type=" + storageType + ", storageRequired=" + storageRequired); |
| * Map<String, String> props = new HashMap<>(); |
| * props.put("storage.required", Boolean.toString(_xmlConfiguration.isStorageRequired())) |
| * props.put("storage.filter", "(type=" + _xmlConfiguration.getStorageType() + ")"); |
| * return props; |
| * } |
| * |
| * // All dependencies injected, including dynamic dependencies defined from init method. |
| * @Start |
| * void start() { |
| * log.log(LogService.LOG_WARNING, "start"); |
| * } |
| * |
| * @Override |
| * void store(String key, String value) { |
| * storage.store(key, value); |
| * } |
| * } |
| * </pre> |
