During my private studies on dependency injection (DI), dynamic proxy,
remoting, Maven2 and JPA I started to create a small very simple
dependency injection framework with some basic features. It's not as powerful as Spring or similar frameworks but it helps me in my every day work, where I don't have a Java EE Server available.
I decided to make it available for every one - maybe someone can use it. Have a look: www.simject.org

Hi William,
For sure Spring can do everything. The main purpose of simject is to keep it simple and to have a very small library.

Hi Robbie,
I only wanted to use Java SE Standard like the @Ressource annotation and the configuration should be external (e.g XML). That's why don't took Guice.

Why not picocontainer? (with nanocontainer)

Hi Peter,
I don't want to compete against PicoContainer or SpringFramework because they provide a lot more features than simject does. simject is a product of my private studies and I wanted to make it very simple.
But again if one is looking for simple dependecy injection with remoting and JPA support, let's try simject!
Regards, Simon

OSGi is a great concept with dynamic component loading and versioning support.
simject does not address these features because I want to keep it extremly simple. It only provides simple dependency injection.
If you need all the OSGi features there are greate OSGi implementation like Equinox, Knopflerfish etc.
