Hi there Project Jigsaw Devs, I was viewing a recent talk posted to the vjug on Jigsaw and had a question about cross module service dependencies.
Basically I was wondering if the functionality of the ServiceLoader could be abstracted away using dependency injection (CDI or otherwise). For example, if I have a CLI module which uses ServiceLoader to obtain implementations of some dictionary service api, and one of the implementations requires a DataSource, I would like to declare that dependency on the DataSource in the ctor of the DbBackedDictionaryServiceImpl perhaps with an @Inject annotation and have (perhaps the module system?) automatically look for a suitable providers of the DataSoruce using the ServiceLoader. Alternatively I could perhaps declare @Inject on a Set or List of DataSource to support multiple DataSources. Basically I'm interested in moving the dependencies provided by the ServiceLoader into the constructor to make them more explicit. Thanks for all the hard work, I can't wait to have modules in Java! Kind Regards, Matthew Madson
