Re: [xwiki-devs] Problems accessing DocumentAccessBridge from the XWiki implementation for Shindig PersonService

It looks like you can bind an instance to type in Guice. This is done either with Instance Bindings, @Provides Methods or Provider Bindings, depending on the complexity of the class. (http://code.google.com/p/google-guice/wiki/Bindings) All bindings are defined in a class that extends AbstractModule, this would be XWSocialModule in my code ( https://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/sandbox/gsoc/opensocial/xwiki-social-op…). These modules are then passed as arguments to Guice.createInjector(), which builds the injector. In my application, the injector is build by GuiceServletContextListener ( http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/shindig/trunk/java/common/src/mai…) This servlet takes the context parameters defined in my web.xml; these are: <context-param> <param-name>guice-modules</param-name> <param-value> org.apache.shindig.common.PropertiesModule: org.apache.shindig.gadgets.DefaultGuiceModule: org.apache.shindig.gadgets.oauth.OAuthModule: org.apache.shindig.common.cache.ehcache.EhCacheModule: org.xwiki.opensocial.social.XWSocialModule </param-value> </context-param> <listener> <listener-class>org.xwiki.container.servlet.XWikiServletContextListener</listener-class> </listener> Now, all I need to do is bind the instance of PersonServiceXW after it has been initialized by XWiki's Component Manager. The binding will be done in XWSocialModule, using one of the instance binding methods (Instance Bindings, @Provides Methods or Provider Bindings). My questions are: 1. How do I make sure PersonServiceXW has been initialized already by the XWiki CM before binding it for Guice ?

2. How do I get the initialized PersonServiceXW instance from XWSocialModule?
