DataKernel has an extremely lightweight DI with ground-breaking design principles. It supports nested scopes, singletons, object factories, modules and plugins which allow to transform graph of dependencies at startup time without any reflection.

The newest version!

/**
 * This function is passed to a {@link BindingGenerator generator} when trying to generate a binding.
 * 
 * Generators can depend on other bindings that could not be present but can be generated.
 * This function is used as a mean of recursion - when no requested binding is present it tries to generate it,
 * and it is called from the generator itself.
