Show answer

Answer

  • C Constructor injection: dependencies are declared as constructor parameters

Explanation

TYPO3 uses the Symfony service container, which detects dependencies automatically (autowiring) and passes them in when a service is created. Constructor injection is recommended, for example public function __construct(private readonly ProductRepository $productRepository) {}: the class shows at a glance what it needs and can easily be given test doubles in tests. inject*() methods are only intended for abstract base classes whose constructor should not burden subclasses. GeneralUtility::makeInstance() hides dependencies inside the code and is only the exception for services nowadays.
