dependency-injection Getting started with dependency-injection What is a basic example of dependency injection?

Example

Here is a class (Dog) creating its own dependency (Food):

class Dog {
    public Dog() {
        var food = new Food();

        this.eat(food);
    }
}

Here is the same class being injected with its dependency using constructor injection:

class Dog {
    public Dog(Food food) {
        this.eat(food);
    }
}
