		Tichy on Sept 17, 2009 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Google Delivers New Java-like Language, Noop What do they mean by a language that supports dependency injection? What would be an example for a language that doesn't support it - stateless languages, I suppose? Because if there is no state, how to remember the dependencies? Edit: Just checked if it is April 1st, but nope, it isn't. They must be serious.

I'm sure they mean that the language itself supports declaring and injecting dependencies rather than needing to use an external tool to do it.
