<title>Using JSR 330 standard annotations</title>
<para>Starting from Spring 3.0, Spring offers support for JSR-330 standard annotations (Dependency Injection).
Those annotations are scanned in the same way as the Spring annotations. You just need to have the relevant jars in your classpath.
</para>
<note>
If you are using Maven, the <interfacename>javax.inject</interfacename> artifact is available on the standard Maven repository (<ulink url="http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/javax/inject/javax.inject/1/">http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/javax/inject/javax.inject/1/</ulink>). You just need to add the following dependency to your file pom.xml:
<programlisting language="xml">
&lt;dependency&gt;
&lt;groupId&gt;javax.inject&lt;/groupId&gt;
&lt;artifactId&gt;javax.inject&lt;/artifactId&gt;
&lt;version&gt;1&lt;/version&gt;
&lt;/dependency&gt;
</programlisting>

<title>Dependency Injection with <interfacename>@Inject</interfacename> and <interfacename>@Named</interfacename></title>
<para>
Instead of <interfacename>@Autowired</interfacename>, <interfacename>javax.inject.Inject</interfacename> may be used as follows:
<programlisting language="java">
import javax.inject.Inject;
public class SimpleMovieLister {
private MovieFinder movieFinder;
@Inject
public void setMovieFinder(MovieFinder movieFinder) {
this.movieFinder = movieFinder;
}
<lineannotation>// ...</lineannotation>
}</programlisting>
As for <interfacename>@Autowired</interfacename>, it is possible to use <interfacename>@Inject</interfacename> at the class-level, field-level, method-level and constructor-argument level.
If you would like to use a qualified name for the dependency that should be injected, you should use the <interfacename>@Named</interfacename> annotation as follows:
<programlisting language="java">
import javax.inject.Inject;
import javax.inject.Named;
public class SimpleMovieLister {
private MovieFinder movieFinder;
@Inject
public void setMovieFinder(@Named("main") MovieFinder movieFinder) {
this.movieFinder = movieFinder;
}
<lineannotation>// ...</lineannotation>
}</programlisting>
</para>
</section>
<section id="beans-named">
<title><interfacename>@Named</interfacename>: a standard equivalent to the <interfacename>@Component</interfacename> annotation</title>
<para>
Instead of <interfacename>@Component</interfacename>, <interfacename>javax.inject.Named</interfacename> may be used as follows:
<programlisting language="java">
import javax.inject.Inject;
import javax.inject.Named;
@Named("movieListener")
public class SimpleMovieLister {
private MovieFinder movieFinder;
@Inject
public void setMovieFinder(MovieFinder movieFinder) {
this.movieFinder = movieFinder;
}
<lineannotation>// ...</lineannotation>
}</programlisting>
</para>
<para>
It is very common to use <interfacename>@Component</interfacename> without specifying a name for the component. <interfacename>@Named</interfacename> can be used in a similar fashion:
<programlisting language="java">
import javax.inject.Inject;
import javax.inject.Named;
@Named
public class SimpleMovieLister {
private MovieFinder movieFinder;
@Inject
public void setMovieFinder(MovieFinder movieFinder) {
this.movieFinder = movieFinder;
}
<lineannotation>// ...</lineannotation>
}
</programlisting>
</para>
<para>
When using <interfacename>@Named</interfacename>, it is possible to use component-scanning in the exact same way as when using Spring annotations:
<programlisting language="xml">
&lt;beans&gt;
&lt;context:component-scan base-package="org.example"/&gt;
&lt;/beans&gt;
</programlisting>

<para>
jsr-330 default scope is like Spring's <interfacename>prototype</interfacename>. However, in order to keep it consistent with Spring's general defaults, a jsr-330 bean declared in the Spring container is a <interfacename>singleton</interfacename> by default. In order to use another scope than <interfacename>singleton</interfacename>, you should use Spring's <interfacename>@Scope</interfacename> annotation.
</para>
<para>
<interfacename>javax.inject</interfacename> also provides a <ulink url="http://download.oracle.com/javaee/6/api/javax/inject/Scope.html">@Scope</ulink> annotation. Nevertheless, this one only aims to be used for creating your own annotations.
