## Class ContainerBuilder

- java.lang.Object
- - com.opensymphony.xwork2.inject.ContainerBuilder

-     public final class ContainerBuilder
      extends Object

  Builds a dependency injection `Container`. The combination of dependency type and name uniquely identifies a dependency mapping; you can use the same name for two different types. Not safe for concurrent use.

  Adds the following factories by default:

  - Injects the current `Container`.
  - Injects the `Logger` for the injected member's declaring class.
