39 39  |[[Field Injection>>doc:Software Engineering.Architecture.Dependency Injection.Types of Dependency Injection.WebHome]]|(% style="text-align:justify" %)A type of dependency injection where a dependency is injected directly into an object's field via reflection, bypassing encapsulation.

41 -|In-Memory|(% style="text-align:justify" %)In-memory refers to the storage and processing of data directly in a computer's random access memory (RAM), and is faster than traditional disk storage. However, it lacks data persistence. For example, in-memory databases, often used in development stages, prioritize speed and efficiency, but are not suitable for storing critical data due to their volatility.
41 +|In-Memory|(% style="text-align:justify" %)In-memory refers to storing and processing data directly in a computer's random access memory (RAM) and is faster than traditional disk storage. However, it lacks data persistence. Examples include in-memory databases or the Linux temporary file system (tmpfs), which are often used in development environments where there is no need to store critical data.
42 42  |[[Inversion of Control>>doc:Software Engineering.Architecture.Dependency Injection.Dependency Injection Explained.WebHome]] (IoC)|(% style="text-align:justify" %)A design principle that delegates a program's control flow to a separate container or framework that "wires" application components together, facilitating [[dependency injection>>doc:Software Engineering.Architecture.Dependency Injection.WebHome]]. An IoC container, as found in the Spring Framework, is a common tool for implementing this principle.
43 43  |JavaBean|A design convention for data structures. Typically, a class with a public no-argument constructor, private fields, and getter/setter methods for each field. Often followed by DTOs and entities.
44 44  |Module|(% style="text-align:justify" %)A distinct part of a software that encapsulates specific implementation details, such as functions, data structures, classes, interfaces, or even other modules. It exposes a concise API designed to perform specific tasks. These modules are typically crafted for reusability and improved code organization, thereby promoting a modular design.
