Add auto-resolution capability

[pmjones]

This allows type hinted constructor params, that do not have explicit DI values, to receive new instances of their type hinted classes. It also allows explicit auto-resolution of type hints to a specific class or service. Incidentally, params type hinted to array will receive empty arrays when no explicit value is passed.

Also ping @mbrevda and @adriengibrat who have explicitly asked for this.

[mbrevda]

Thanks for remembering! Let me see if I can fit this in to the workflow somewhere...

I would like to ping @TomBZombie for he is doing bench marking of di containers .

[adriengibrat]

I'll be happy to update my benchmark : https://github.com/adriengibrat/benchmarking-dependency-injection-containers 6 month ago the results was: http://adriengibrat.github.io/benchmarking-dependency-injection-containers/

[djmattyg007]

I haven't yet had a chance to read over the patch (in fact, I haven't been keeping up with it for a few months now, so I've got a bit of catchup work to do), but from the description and the mailing list discussion, I like it quite a bit.

I do have one question: how is the callable type hint supported? "Not at all" is a perfectly good answer, I just wanted to make sure it'd been thought of and won't crash the code.

[pmjones]

@djmattyg007 As far as "callable" there's no way I can think of to auto-resolve it. There's no class associated with it, so we can't instantiate anything; and unlike "array" there's no one canonical callable representation. So I don't see that it can be supported by auto-resolution. In short, "not at all" AFAICT. ;-)

[harikt]

I am good with this. May be we press the green button :+1: .

[pmjones]

Green button it is.

No, that's the very next task. I think a full README rewrite is in order at this point.

[pmjones]

FWIW all the pre-existing idioms work unchanged.

[mbrevda]

I didnt say "requires" :). And yes, the current readme is a bit of a ramble...

Benchmark updated: http://adriengibrat.github.io/benchmarking-dependency-injection-containers/

[pmjones]

That's very heartening. :-)
