Hello, I am trying to use DI with Spring and Akka actors. I found the template example at TypesafeActivator but I had question for a case that is not working for me. The example uses AnnotationBased DI and I would like to use XMl based for the following reason:
I have two algorithm implementations for my project which project my results to the end user in different formats. The algorithms are also significantly different and I have a single JAVA interface that these 2 algorithms implement. I don't prefer the annotation based binding because I want the tester during integration testing to change the algorithm we use in an XML file or property file because if the chnage is done in a JAVA file, it warrants a new release of software version at the Integration test site. I want the tester to be able to run the jar with different algorithms based on an external XML/ java properties file. Qn 1) The example on the website to create the actor system and Props uses Java annotation technique. How do I convert that to a regular <bean>....</bean> kind of thing? Qn 2) I want to create a few actors as simple UntypedActors and few Actors as ConsistentHashingRouter where the number of workers comes from a Java Properties file. Is this as simple as having another props() method? How can I translate this props() method to an XML format so that I can make it follow the way I want to in Qn (1). As of now, I do not want a mix of dependency injection techniques and would like to stick to one format. Any help will be really appreciated because I am a novice to Spring DI with Akka actors.
