Use javax.inject.Provider

[michalkowol]

If you use import: import javax.inject.Provider you cannot use bind[A].toProvider[AProvider], but tou must use bind[A].toProvider(classOf[AProvider])

Example:

trait A {
  def foo(): String
}

class AProvider extends javax.inject.Provider[A] {
  def get(): A = new A {
    def foo(): String = "foo"
  }
}

class AModule extends AbstractModule with ScalaModule {
  def configure() {
    bind[A].toProvider(classOf[AProvider]) // ok
   //bind[A].toProvider[AProvider] // fails!
  }
}

Solution: argument in net.codingwell.scalaguice.ScalaLinkedBindingBuilder.toProvider should be javax.inject.Provider insted of com.google.inject.Provider (note that Provider from guice only extends Provider from javax.inject).

I'll have to look into that.

Pull requests are always welcome as well. ; )

I assume you are using Google Guice/scala-guice 4-beta ?

[michalkowol]

Yes, I am using scala-guice 4-beta. Issue fixed in #18.

I'm not going to bother backporting this to 3.x unless someone asks for it in a new ticket.
