From our news page -
New (since 2.4):
Circular dependencies, while always supported via the implementation
hiding behavior are now supported explicitly for individual components
PicoBuilder improved in that it can add child containers to their
parents if wanted. Refer PicoBuilder.addChildToParent()
Components can now declare generic collections as dependencies to be
Injected. It works the same was as an Array of the type in question
always did.
Concrete extensions of generic components can satisfy dependencies
now. This is a way of beating type erasure.
Changes (versus 2.4):
ConsoleComponentMonitor does need to be final, thus is not now.
Attempts to chain a series of MutablePicoContainer.as() statements are
blocked now. Instead users are directed towards the varargs feature of
the same method.
