If you want to use e.g. Spring, you will have a hard time > figuring out what goes where. Even with the source code and an IDE. @ImplementedBy does nothing if you don't wire a Guice module. You'll never break the guice dependency itself because of the other annotations, though you could certainly stub them out (including ImplementedBy). It's not possible to use guice in any meaningful capacity without the @Inject annotation, so the @ImplementedBy annotation makes little difference. > > > And that is my point BTW. :-) > > Ciao > Henning > > -- > Henning P.
