public interface Provider<T>
Provides instances ofT
. Typically implemented by an injector. For any typeT
that can be injected, you can also injectProvider<T>
. Compared to injectingT
directly, injectingProvider<T>
enables:- retrieving multiple instances.
- lazy or optional retrieval of an instance.
- breaking circular dependencies.
- abstracting scope so you can look up an instance in a smaller scope from an instance in a containing scope.
For example:
class Car { @Inject Car(Provider<Seat> seatProvider) { Seat driver = seatProvider.get(); Seat passenger = seatProvider.get(); ... } }

T get()
Provides a fully-constructed and injected instance ofT
.- Returns:
- instance of
T
. - Throws:
RuntimeException
- if the injector encounters an error while providing an instance. For example, if an injectable member onT
throws an exception, the injector may wrap the exception and throw it to the caller ofget()
. Callers should not try to handle such exceptions as the behavior may vary across injector implementations and even different configurations of the same injector.
