Package org.eclipse.aether.spi.locator Description
A lightweight service locator infrastructure to help components acquire dependent components. The implementation of
the repository system is decomposed into many sub components that interact with each other via interfaces, allowing
an application to customize the system by swapping in different implementation classes for these interfaces. The
service locator defined by this package is one means for components to get hold of the proper implementation for its
dependencies. While not the most popular approach to component wiring, this service locator enables applications
that do not wish to pull in more sophisticated solutions like dependency injection containers to have a small
footprint. Therefore, all components should implement
Service to support this
goal.
