Guice Servlet Extensions

Guice Servlet provides a complete story for use in web applications and servlet containers. Guice's servlet extensions allow you to completely eliminate web.xml from your servlet application and take advantage of type-safe, idiomatic Java configuration of your servlet and filter components.

This has advantages not only in being able to use a nicer API for configuring your web applications, but also in tying together dependency injection with web components. Meaning that your servlets and filters benefit from:

• Constructor injection
• Type-safe, idiomatic configuration
• Modularization (package and distribute custom Guice Servlet libraries)
• Guice AOP

While keeping the benefits of the standard servlet lifecycle.
