Unclear on the use the `jx` module

I am have bound services needing other bound services.

My binding looks like this:

val kodein = Kodein {
    import(jxInjectorModule)
    bind<Properties>() with singleton { PropertiesLoaderUtils.loadProperties(ClassPathResource("application.properties")) }
    bind<FileContentProvider>() with singleton { FileContentProvider.default }
    bind<DistributionService>() with singleton { jx.newInstance<DistributionServiceImpl>() }
    bind<InnkeeperClient>() with singleton { jx.newInstance<InnkeeperClientImpl>() }
    bind<QuiltClient>() with singleton { jx.newInstance<QuiltClientImpl>() }
    bind<TessellateClient>() with singleton { jx.newInstance<TessellateClientImpl>() }
    bind<JsonService>() with singleton { JsonServiceImpl() }
    bind<RequestContext>() with singleton { RequestContextImpl() }
    bind<Authorization>() with singleton { AuthorizationImpl() }
}

The moment I hit the resolving of the DistributionService, it fails with this message:

com.github.salomonbrys.kodein.Kodein$DependencyLoopException: Dependency recursion:
       ╔═> bind<JxInjector>()
       ╠─> bind<DistributionService>()
       ╚═> bind<JxInjector>()

The constructor of my DistributionServiceImpl is:

class DistributionServiceImpl(
    private val jsonService: JsonService,
    private val properties: Properties,
    private val quiltClient: QuiltClient,
    private val innkeeperClient: InnkeeperClient,
    private val tessellateClient: TessellateClient
) : DistributionService {

When I debug with breakpoints in every one of the singleton lambda, I observe that the following are called:

• JsonServiceImpl()
• FileContentProvider.default
• jx.newInstance<DistributionServiceImpl>() Then it fails before entering the constructor of class DistributionServiceImpl.

I feel that I simply am not using this right. However, the documentation does not state a clear example of how to declare a binding block using the jx approach. It just states as an example:

val kodein = Kodein {
    import(jxInjectorModule)
    /* Other bindings */
}

I am interested in HOW to declare the other bindings here.

Thanks for whatever help you can provide.

Certainly looks correct…

Hi there, this really looks like a bug 😦 I;ll have a look as soon as I can
