Using regex to gather a list of components for injection

[Paul Hammant-3]

I've started something, that should end up in Gems.  It is related to  
ComponentMonitor in that it leverages the noComponentFound  
functionality.  Thoughts as to name for it?  It makes components that  
are not ordinarily in the container.  a Missing Component maker if you  
like (though as you know by now I should never be allowed to name  
classes).

Regards,

What's wrong with RegexComposer ?

You know, I'd like to see these kinds of things somehow tagged with the Moniker
along the lines of "ExternalProvider", since they're bending ComponentMonitor
into a Provider.  

Perhaps a marker interface to allow easy tracing through the IDE and Javadocs?

Other than that, I agree with Joerg.....

Yes, I agree, it kinda warrants more than a monitor.  We could introduce
an AutoComposer concept and have a RegexAutoComposer as the regex impl.

BTW, I'd prefer to composition/decoration of ComponentMonitor over
inheritance.

Yep, definitely a Regex impl should have Regex in its name.

Cheers

I completely agree.  As is, it was just to satisfy a unit test.
