Erik,

the injectDependencies(Object result, Class clazz, PicoContainer container) method is in 
InjectingComponentAdapter and it's invoked when getComponentInstance().  Actually, it should be 
moved to the newInstance() method.

I don't quite understand the need to separate the process of dependency injection from the objection 
instantiation/retrieval.

Can you provide a testcase that demostrates the need for the method being the AnnotablePicoContainer 
interface?

Cheers
