-------------------------------
Summary: Injections for java.util.Optional<> should be automatic
optional
Key: SLING-8706
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-8706
Project: Sling
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Sling Models
Reporter: Jörg Hoh
The current approach to support optional injections requires to annotate the
field with {{@Optional}} plus proper handling within the javacode (null checks
etc), which can be forgotten.
So instead of
{code}
@Inject @Optional
String fieldname;
{code}
it should also be possible to use this
{code}
@Inject
Optional<String> fieldname;
{code}
with the very same semantic. But the developer is forced to deal with the case
that the value is not present.
