Tapestry calls this world "The Registry".</p><p><span class="confluence-embedded-file-wrapper"><img class="confluence-embedded-image" src="tapestry-ioc-overview.data/ioc-overview.png"></span></p><p>Here we're seeing a few services from the built-in Tapestry IoC module, and a few of the services from the Tapestry web framework module. In fact, there are over 100 services, all interrelated, in the Registry ... and that's before you add your own to the mix. The IoC Registry treats all the services uniformly, regardless of whether they are part of Tapestry, or part of your application, or part of an add-on library.</p><p>Tapestry IoC's job is to make all of these services available to each other, and to the outside world. The outside world could be a standalone application, or it could be an application built on top of the Tapestry web framework.</p><h2 id="TapestryIoCOverview-Se rviceLifeCycle">Service Life Cycle</h2><p>Tapestry services are <em>lazy</em>, which means they are not fully instantiated until they are absolutely needed. Often, what looks like a service is really a proxy object ... the first time any method of the proxy is invoked, the actual service is instantiated and initialized (Tapestry uses the term <em>realized</em> for this process). Of course, this is all absolutely thread-safe.</p><p>Initially a service is <em>defined</em>, meaning some module has defined the service. Later, the service will be <em>virtual</em>, meaning a proxy has been created. This occurs most often because some other service <em>depends</em> on it, but hasn't gotten around to invoking methods on it. Finally, a service that is ready to use is <em>realized</em>. What's nice is that your code neither knows nor cares about the life cycle of the service, because of the magic of the proxy.</p><p>In fact, when a Tapestry web application starts up, before it services its fi rst request, only about 20% of the services have been realized; the remainder are defined or virtual.</p><h2 id="TapestryIoCOverview-Classvs.Service">Class vs. Service</h2><p>A Tapestry service is more than just a class. First of all, it is a combination of an <em>interface</em> that defines the operations of the service, and an <em>implementation class</em> that implements the interface.</p><p>Why this extra division? Having a service interface is what lets Tapestry create proxies and perform other operations. It's also a very good practice to code to an interface, rather than a specific implementation. You'll often be surprised at the kinds of things you can accomplish by substituting one implementation for another.</p><p>Tapestry is also very aware that a service will have dependencies on other services. It may also have other needs ... for example, in Tapestry IoC, the container provides services with access to Loggers.</p><p>Tapestry IoC also has support for other configuration that may be provided to services when they are realized.</p><h2 id="TapestryIoCOverview-DependencyInjection">Dependency Injection</h2><p>Main Article: <a href="injection.html">Injection</a></p><div class="aui-label" style="float:right" title="Related Articles"><h3>Related Articles</h3><ul class="content-by-label"><li> - <div> - <span class="icon aui-icon aui-icon-small aui-iconfont-page-default" title="Page">Page:</span> - </div> - <div class="details"> - <a href="injection-in-detail.html">Injection in Detail</a> - </div> </li><li> - <div> - <span class="icon aui-icon aui-icon-small aui-iconfont-page-default" title="Page">Page:</span> - </div> - <div class="details"> - <a href="injection-faq.html">Injection FAQ</a> - </div> </li><li> - <div> - <span class="icon aui-icon aui-icon-small aui-iconfont-page-default" title="Page">Page:</span> - </div> - <div class="details"> - <a href="injection.html">Injection</a> - </div> </li></ul></div><p>Inversion of Control refers to the fact that the container, here Tapestry IoC's Registry, instantiates your classes.

For example, a Data Access Object service may be injected with a ConnectionPool service.</p><p>In Tapestry, injection occurs through constructors, through parameters to service builder methods, or through direct injection into fields. Tapestry prefers constructor injection, as this emphasizes that dependencies should be stored in <strong>final</strong> variables. This is the best approach towards ensuring thread safety.</p><p>In any case, injection "just happens". Tapestry finds the constructor of your class and analyzes the parameters to determine what to pass in. In some cases, it uses just the parameter type to find a match, in other cases, annota tions on the parameters may also be used. It also scans through the fields of your service implementation class to identify which should have injected values written into them.</p><h2 id="TapestryIoCOverview-Whycan'tIjustusenew?">Why can't I just use <code>new</code>?</h2><p>That's a common question.
