Re: Preventing others from using 'new' when object is created by Guice?
Son of a gun! Never thought of that (Guice being able to call the constructor w/o actually having traditional Java access to it).

Guice is perfectly happy to call a package-private @Inject constructor from any package. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "google-guice" group.
