Response to: Fatally Flawed Article
Annotations require one to rewrite or modify source code just to do dependency injection. This makes annotations an intrusive technology; this means it is incompatible with legacy code. As someone who has a Ph.D. in scientific computing and who uses it every day to do datamining and to author statistical algorithms, I find dependency injection very useful in Java numerics code because most of the algorithm can only be re-used if reconfiguration of the data flow is easy. I'm not about rewrite my functioning, optimized legacy code unnecessarily. I'm using Spring for ioc and forgetting about EJB; I'll leave that to masochistic software engineers.

did you not read the sentence in the article which points out EJB3.0 supports XML configuration to override annotations for legacy code?.. so your point is meaningless..
