Here is an example of dependency injection in different languages. If you run it, you will get this text:
*********************************
Demo that shows usage of dependency injection
Dependency injection is used for hardware abstraction, which has the following advantages:
- I can simply use a simulator if I don't have hardware
- if the hardware ever changes, I only need to implement a new implementation of the interface to support the new hardware, the rest of the system stays the same!
- I can use mocks to unit test my class without having an implementation at all!
Demo: calling DoIt that switches the light on and off:
LightSimulator: switched light ON
LightSimulator: switched light OFF
*********************************
Any code that depends on other code can benefit from dependency injection: you get a clear separation between what you need and *how* it's implemented. This makes your code easier to (unit) test and more resilient to changes.
