Description

Add support for Picocontainer:
http://picocontainer.org/

Right now there's support only for Spring, but Spring is everything but "lightweight": for many small projects that need just to inject a few beans/services, Spring is the total overkill.

PicoContainer is very small and effective for what it was ment. Even big applications like IntelliJ IDE or JIRA are using it:
