Binding @Provides method as eager singleton

Question

I want to make a binding using a method annotated with @Provides into an eager singleton. I\'ve found bug 216, which suggests this isn\'t possible, but doesn\'t men

Answer 1

Why not to use

bind(Logic.class).toInstance(LogicCreator.create(dep)); 
//ohh we missing dep

then we can do this

class LogicProvider implements Provider {

    private final SomeDep dep;

    @Inject
    public LogicProvider(SomeDep dep) {
      this.dep = dep;
    }

    @Override
    public Logic get() {
      return LogicCreator.create(dep);
    }

}

and then

bind(Logic.class).toProvider(LogicProvider.class).asEagerSingleton();

You can even pass SomeDep dep to your provider as Provider and then call providerDep.get() in LogicCreator.create() that would be a bit more robust.
