Question

I\'m trying to migrate a Playframework application from 2.4 to 2.5.3 and I have problems to get values from application.conf file:

Before t

Answer 1

Try with constructor injection instead:

import javax.inject.Inject;
import play.Configuration;
import play.Logger;

public class Zipper {

    private Configuration configuration;

    @Inject
    public Zipper(Configuration config) {
        this.configuration = config;
    }

    public void unZip(String zipFilePath) {
        Logger.debug("Display : zipFilePath"+zipFilePath);
        Logger.debug("before call parameter from application.conf");
        Logger.debug("configuration.getString = "+configuration.getString("Unzipedfile.path"));
        Logger.debug("aftercall parameter from application.conf");
    }
}

I'm not sure that Guice is capable of inject private fields. Anyway, constructor injection is the recommended injection type.
