/**
 * A simple injection manager that manages creating objects and injecting
 * dependencies between them. It borrows quite a lot from ideas taken from
 * Spring's configuration, but is adapted to the stateless PHP way of doing
 * things.
 *
 * In its simplest form, the dependency injector can be used as a mechanism to
 * instantiate objects. Simply call
 *
 * Injector::inst()->get('ClassName')
 *
 * and a new instance of ClassName will be created and returned to you.
 *
 * Classes can have specific configuration defined for them to
 * indicate dependencies that should be injected. This takes the form of
 * a static variable $dependencies defined in the class (or configuration),
 * which indicates the name of a property that should be set.
 *
 * eg
 *
 * <code>
 * class MyController extends Controller {
 *
 *		public $permissions;
 *		public $defaultText;
 *
 *		static $dependencies = array(
 *			'defaultText'		=> 'Override in configuration',
 *			'permissions'		=> '%$PermissionService',
 *		);
 * }
 * </code>
 *
 * will result in an object of type MyController having the defaultText property
 * set to 'Override in configuration', and an object identified
 * as PermissionService set into the property called 'permissions'. The %$
 * syntax tells the injector to look the provided name up as an item to be created
 * by the Injector itself.
 *
 * A key concept of the injector is whether to manage the object as
 *
 * * A pseudo-singleton, in that only one item will be created for a particular
 *   identifier (but the same class could be used for multiple identifiers)
 * * A prototype, where the same configuration is used, but a new object is
 *   created each time
 * * unmanaged, in which case a new object is created and injected, but no
 *   information about its state is managed.
 *
 * Additional configuration of items managed by the injector can be done by
 * providing configuration for the types, either by manually loading in an
 * array describing the configuration, or by specifying the configuration
 * for a type via SilverStripe's configuration mechanism.
 *
 * Specify a configuration array of the format
 *
 * <code>
 * array(
 *		array(
 *			'id'			=> 'BeanId',					// the name to be used if diff from the filename
 *			'priority'		=> 1,							// priority. If another bean is defined with the same ID,
 *															// but has a lower priority, it is NOT overridden
 *			'class'			=> 'ClassName',					// the name of the PHP class
 *			'src'			=> '/path/to/file'				// the location of the class
 *			'type'			=> 'singleton|prototype'		// if you want prototype object generation, set it as the
 *			                                                // type
 *															// By default, singleton is assumed
 *
 *			'factory' => 'FactoryService'					// A factory service to use to create instances.
 *			'construct'		=> array(						// properties to set at construction
 *				'scalar',
 *				'%$BeanId',
 *			)
 *			'properties'	=> array(
 *				'name' => 'value'							// scalar value
 *				'name' => '%$BeanId',						// a reference to another bean
 *				'name' => array(
 *					'scalar',
 *					'%$BeanId'
 *				)
 *			)
 *		)
 *		// alternatively
 *		'MyBean'		=> array(
 *			'class'			=> 'ClassName',
 *		)
 *		// or simply
 *		'OtherBean'		=> 'SomeClass',
 * )
 * </code>
 *
 * In addition to specifying the bindings directly in the configuration,
 * you can simply create a publicly accessible property on the target
 * class which will automatically be injected if the autoScanProperties
 * option is set to true. This means a class defined as
 *
 * <code>
 * class MyController extends Controller {
 *
 *		private $permissionService;
 *
 *		public setPermissionService($p) {
 *			$this->permissionService = $p;
 *		}
 * }
 * </code>
 *
 * will have setPermissionService called if
 *
 * * Injector::inst()->setAutoScanProperties(true) is called and
 * * A service named 'PermissionService' has been configured
