Hi Matthias,
If you're using Spring 3 and don't want to configure constructor
injection via XML (which looks really messy when you have lots of classes),
you can also use Spring's Java Configuration capabilities.
I like it for it's compactness, here's a simple example:
@Configuration
public class ApplicationSetup {
public @Bean recommender() throws Exception() {
DataModel dataModel = ...
ItemSimilarity similarity = ...;
return new GenericItemBasedRecommender(dataModel, similarity);
}
...
}
--sebastian
