Would something like this work?
public class LogglyModule extends AbstractModule {
@Override protected void configure() {
requestInjection(new Object() {
@Inject void configureLoggly(@Configuration Properties config) {
// Configure Loggly.
...
}
});
}
}
It won't work if you need Loggly in your modules. If you need that, you'll
just have to share the Properties outside of Guice.
