Meta tags (and other things) injectable into components
-------------------------------------------------------
Key: JBEHAVE-541
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JBEHAVE-541
Project: JBehave
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Guice Support, Pico Support, Spring Support
Reporter: Paul Hammant
Meta tags can be injected into step methods. They can't be injected into
step-pojo constructors, nor in any capacity to components that are themselves
injectable into step-pojo constructors.
Workaround people have to do: accept the meta-tag into the step-pojo's step
method and hand it to wherever needs.
In our particular case, Page objects are being made by a DI container, and it
would be better separation of concerns to have meta tags injected where they
are needed, and not in the steps class (which only passes them on).
The senior developer in question wishes, in lieu of something better, that
StoryRunner.RunContext.Meta was statically available (on a thread local) and
that page objects could pull it when they need it. That's a breach of IoC of
course, but you get why he wishes for it.
