Hi Ramsey,
Guice is very flexible and powerful. You can use the @Named annotation to distinguish between implementations:
class ComponentOne {
@Inject @Named("Advanced")
Service service;
}
... or create your own annotation for a more type-safe approach:
class ComponentTwo {
@Inject @Basic
Service service;
}
class AppModule {
void configure() {
bind(Service.class).annotatedWith(Names.named("Advanced")).to(AdvancedServiceImpl.class);
bind(Service.class).annotatedWith(Basic.class).to(BasicServiceImpl.class);
}
}
Guice also solves the "robot legs problem". Imagine there is only one implementation of the Service interface named ServiceImpl. You want two instances of ServiceImpl: one pointing to the service's URL and another pointing to a backup URL. You can use PrivateModules to solve this problem as described in the Guice's FAQ [1] (see question "How do I build two similar but slightly different trees of objects?").

Cheers,
Henrique
