BeanPot Features (version 1.0.6)

BeanPot is a tiny-footprint bean container with dependency injection, like a mini-Spring.

• BeanPot supports a writer (which can be used as a primitive logger) and an identifier, as well as an unlimited number of beans;
• BeanPot supports JMX using a very easy-to-use mechanism;
• BeanPot can use a constructor to instantiate beans or, if a class is marked as a singleton class, can use the getInstance() method;
• BeanPot can also handle beans which are imposed on the bean container externally, such as an applet.
• Constructor arguments may be primitives, objects that support the valueOf(String) class method, arrays or lists.
• Properties may be primitives, objects that support the valueOf(String) class method, arrays, lists, or maps;
• Configuration is by XML file normally, but in general can be anything which provides a HierarchicalConfiguration object (using Jakarta commons configuration).
