Description

The implementation should not require classpath scanning, but work in a similar way to Plexus where the metadata about the components is generated at build time.

This is realized using features in Sisu/Guice and the sisu-maven-plugin[1] which generates a META-INF/sisu/javax.inject.Named file which Sisu/Guice can pick up without scanning.
