Sounds good Tim. Would you be interested to contribute and maintain such an extension to Restlet?
We could start by working in Restlet Incubator, using the “com.google.inject” package. Once “javax.inject” is available and the extension is stable, we could promote it as an official Restlet extension.

I'm sure it will be possible. I haven't worked out the details, but such an extension would provide an additional public interface, org.restlet.ext.inject.FinderFactory (better name needed?) and hooksfor obtaining a FinderFactory implementationthat would have to be specific to the injector implementation. In the mean time, the nice thing about javax.inject is that you should be able to use com.google.inject for now and later switch your imports to javax.inject when the support becomes available. --tim ------------------------------------------------------ http://restlet.tigris.org/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=4447&dsMessageId=2292423
