The Flip Side of Dependency Injection

General

• Arne Blankerts
• Author of phpab and phpDox
• slides available to talks.thephp.cc

Do Not

• do not add to much dependecies (thing is doing to much)
• do not hide dependencies by using a container (it's like throwing in "the config")

Do

• all dependencies must be in code
• separate object creation from usage
• there must be the ability to choose the actual implementation on runtime

How to Get There

• use a factory with explicite API (instead of "get('Foo')", do "getFoo()")
• avoid injecting factories, try to use locators (locators are returning "FooInterface" and using factories for instance creation)
