The title should have been "Everything that is wrong with Spring ... ". Then it would not have been especially accurate, but more accurate. I like Java better than I like Spring. Spring made a framework out of an idea, but not all ideas should be packaged. Ideas can also be embraced. Dependency injection is an idea that should be embraced, but not as a packaged solution. It is a pattern, not a a software project.


It is a pattern, not a a software project.

So you'd rather see every project that wants to use DI, roll their own DI implementation?


Actually, it would then have been entitled "A class that extends the Spring AOP easily and unobtrusively", or probably just as accurately "everything that is right with Spring".

I seriously don't think you understand that at the core of Spring is an IoC container - it just so happens that Spring does a lot of other useful things.
