---------------------------------------
Summary: Models: Support constructor injection without @Inject
annotation on method level
Key: SLING-12986
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-12986
Project: Sling
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Sling Models
Reporter: Konrad Windszus
Currently it is mandatory to use the `javax.inject.Inject` annotation on the
constructor when using constructor injection:
https://github.com/apache/sling-org-apache-sling-models-impl/blob/a42cb661dff6da2df612470d0b9d95a2cdd39f9e/src/main/java/org/apache/sling/models/impl/ModelAdapterFactory.java#L819.
I think this limitation should be lifted and the constructor with most
arguments (annotated with some injector-specific annotations or Inject
annotation) should be used even if it lacks the method level Inject annotation.
This is particularly useful as the import on java.inject caused quite some
issues in the past and also is supposed to be moved to another package
(SLING-12886).
