Open ContributesAndroidInjector for other classes

I’m using Conductor and created a DispatchingAndroidInjector for Controllers (like fragments from a dagger perspective). That works great.

However I want to make use of the ContributesAndroidInjector annotation because I don’t want to go through all the boilerplate of creating subscomponents manually. However dagger fails with an exception that only framework classes are allowed. What is the reason for that? Can it be done anyways?

I’m reopening this - given the recent androidx developments and lots of new, smaller libraries, I think it’s worth reconsidering opening up support.

@AndroidInjectionKey also simplifies this. And if people want to use class literals, they can use their own map key as well.

Controllers are really similar to fragments and it’s a real bummer creating so many subcomponents.

Isn’t it possible to create some plugin structure where you can define your map @MapKey and base class?
