How do I inject a constant into some class using HK2 in jersey? With Guice I could have some class like
public class DependsOnFoo {
@Inject
public DependsOnFoo(@Named("FOO") String foo) {
...
}
...
}
and I would configure it in the injector with something like
bind(String.class).named("FOO").toInstance(new String("foo"))
What's the equivalent, if any, in HK2?
I'm in the process of learning hk2 coming from Guice. Honestly I am still in the weeds a little with the complexity of hk2 vs the simplicity of guice. I did find this solution to work for me and it is much similar to the Guice builder. This did seem a little more straight forward than having to use the ServiceLocatorUtilities
class.
public class IOCMockRestModule extends AbstractBinder
bind(20000).to(Integer.class).named("MAX_REQUEST_TIMEOUT");
}
And to use the injected value:
@Inject
protected CustomerResource(ICustomerProvider customerProvider, @Named("MAX_REQUEST_TIMEOUT") int maxTimeoutMillis) {
