I think we have 100% confusion rate here in a team of 10 over this one section

and that is from Russian, Hungarian, Canadian, Cuban, Argentine, Brazilian, Uruguayan, and Stateless people

so a good cross section

😄

OK 😛 "In a singleton, if you're not 100% sure that the transitive dependencies are themselves singletons, then use providers", well I don't really follow the rule myself

DELETE

OK ok

there is no good way to say such an odd case

my binding library should turn your injector into the JDK JSR compatible constructor of objects soon, ... .working on changing over from Injekt

Great 😄

was trying to figure out scoping, its not so clear

?

so to have some random scope

Fishy

and have separate instances in there that can be tossed away when

Fishy

scope completes...

So create a Scoped Singleton thingy and do

kodein.with(FishInstance).instance<Type>()

and that will give me singletons for

FishInstance

as the scope

and to kill the scope?

is better to use auto scoped singleon and then just remove from my own map?

wait, not sure in docs how an instance knows to come from which scope

fun myScope(): Pair<Context, HashMap<Any, Any>> { /*...*/ }

val kodein = Kodein {
    bind<Logger>() with autoScopedSingleton(::myScope) { LogManager.getNamedLogger(it.name) } // `it` is the context.
}

then

val logger: Logger = kodein.instance()

how does the

kodein.instance()

know the scope to use?

the function decides at any given moment the current scope?

There's no generic function to finish a scope, it depends on the scope

not sure that is so easy

if it is a global function

It does not, it's the scope function that decides

and the scope function is global

The scope function will return a Pair. As long as it returns the same pair, it's the same scope

The scope function is not the scope. The function provides the scope

What if it wants to provide an infinite number of scopes

i.e. each request of a web call

in that case would use the manual scoped singleton

Well, for that, I'd use a

scopedSingleton

, not an

autoScopedSingleton
