# Overview

Sisu is a modular JSR330-based container that supports classpath scanning, auto-binding, and dynamic auto-wiring.

Sisu uses Google-Guice to perform dependency injection and provide the core JSR330 support, but removes the need to write explicit bindings in Guice modules:

    Guice.createInjector(
      new {@link org.eclipse.sisu.wire WireModule}(                       // auto-wires unresolved dependencies
        new {@link org.eclipse.sisu.space SpaceModule}(                     // scans and binds @Named components
          new {@link org.eclipse.sisu.space URLClassSpace}( classloader )    // abstracts class/resource finding
    ) ) );

In the example above the {@code SpaceModule} scans the classpath using the {@code ClassSpace} abstraction. Any classes annotated with a {@code @Qualifier} annotation like {@code @Named} will be bound as components, making them visible to the {@link org.eclipse.sisu.inject BeanLocator} and surrounding {@code WireModule} (constructed around the set of modules making up the application; in this example there is only one, the {@code SpaceModule}).

The {@code WireModule} uses the Guice introspection SPI to analyze all bindings in the application and apply various rules to finish wiring the configuration. Unsatisfied {@code @Inject} requirements are populated using the {@code BeanLocator} which provides a lookup service across all injectors it knows about, allowing for plugin-style solutions. As well as individual components, the {@code WireModule} can satisfy requests for component collections like Lists and Maps (using {@code @Named} values as keys). It also cleans up duplicate and overridden bindings, and merges {@link org.eclipse.sisu.Parameters} bindings.
