Does “Avoid dependency injection frameworks” in the Android Memory Guide apply to Dagger as well?

Question

So I have come across this best practices on Android articles on memory performance.

Answer 1

The creator of Dagger, @JakeWharton, also wrote a simpler view "injection" framework called Butterknife

because all the RoboGuice converts were complaining about lack of "view injection" with Dagger.

You use it like this:

class ExampleActivity extends Activity {
  @InjectView(R.id.title) TextView title;
  @InjectView(R.id.subtitle) TextView subtitle;
  @InjectView(R.id.footer) TextView footer;

  @Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.simple_activity);
    ButterKnife.inject(this);
    // TODO Use "injected" views...
  }
}
