I need to pull config options for beans (strings and ints and the
like) from a file before bootstrapping and then push these config
settings into the beans as they are starting up (replacing existing
settings if needed). I just wanted to see if anyone else has done this
already and has any suggestions.

I am trying to do it like this:
bindConstant().annotatedWith(Names.named(key)).to(value);

This is sorta getting me what I want but not completely. There are 3
issues I have not figured out that I am hoping someone else has:
1) I know exactly which bean the key and value should go with (if it
exists, if not then this is ok and I will skip it) so I want to be
able specify that so that I don't set the value on some other bean
which happened to use the same key for a name.
2) I would prefer not to deal with names at all. The name of the
setter method is fine here (sans "set") so I would prefer to simply be
able to use that without requiring the annotation. In the case of
constructors I want it to be able to use the Named annotation but
without changing the vaue for all beans that use the same name (like
#1).
3) I don't want things to fail if the constant is invalid. That has
not really been a problem with the current approach because if the
named constant is unused then things are ok but if I say "for bean A
set value to B for field C" I want it to happily say "no field C" and
keep going.

I suppose this may all be easy if there is a way to put in an
interceptor which is triggered when each bean is being created so
maybe I just need to know how to do that.
Thanks for any advice
