One month Google Guice framework
It's been about a month now since the Guice framework was released by Google. A short description of Guice: lightweight dependency injection framework for Java 5 (IoC container), strongly using annotations.
Guice is a straight line competitor for (open source) Spring framework (but also for others like Tapestry IoC, HiveMind, PicoContainer, or in some aspects to JBoss Seam).
I was expecting a huge reaction from the open source project members of this 'awkward' move from Google to launch their own framework into the public .. but this does not seem to happen (yet?!). Some reactions on the net that I found useful are:
- A quite nice Guice evaluation with some reactionsDiscussion
- on TheServerSide
- Spring vs Guice comparison (warning: made by Google)

Why "awkward"? :)
Bob, I didn't expect these kinds of 'basic' frameworks to be published by Google ... maybe I also don't quite like the idea of a Spring competitor made by a big company .. I have to get used to it .. I do quite like the new ideas of avoiding the XMLs though
