service+configuration - how?

[David J. M. Karlsen]

Hi!
I currently use hivemind to retreive instances of interface-implementations.
(instanciation of a class for the service-interface).
I'd like to combine this with some specific properties for configuring 
the implementation.

I find the examples on configuration-points and contributions somewhat 
hard to understand. (It seems that I have to create a separate class for 
the config - and call this from the implementation - instead of 
declaring it all in the Hivemind config-file).

What I would like is some private static variables in the 
implementation-class to be set when instanciated.

Lets's say this is the iface:
interface IMyService {
   public void methodA();
}
and the implementation:
public class MyService implements IMyService{
   final static private String aStringProp;
   final static private Integer anIntegerProp;
   public void methodA(){
      //do something
}
}
how could I do this the easiest way through the use of HiveMind, such 
that when I retrieve the service through the registry, the constructed 
object would automatically have it's properties set?

I'd rather avoid having a separate class for configuration as I find 
this too fine-grained.

Thanks in advance - and thanks for a great API!
Kind regards,
David Karlsen
