 Description: API Documentation for plexus-classworlds
- Documentation for plexus-classworlds, part of the Plexus framework.
+ The Plexus project provides a full software stack for creating and executing
+ software projects. Based on the Plexus container, the applications can
+ utilise component-oriented programming to build modular, reusable components
+ that can easily be assembled and reused.
  .
+ While Plexus is similar to other inversion-of-control (IoC) or dependency
+ injection frameworks such as the Spring Framework, it is a full-fledged
+ container that supports many more features such as:
+ .
+     * Component lifecycles
+     * Component instantiation strategies
+     * Nested containers
+     * Component configuration
+     * Auto-wiring
+     * Component dependencies, and
+     * Various dependency injection techniques including constructor injection,
+       setter injection, and private field injection. 
+ .
+ This package contains the API documentation for plexus-classworlds.
