Dependency injection with and without inheritance

Dependency injection is valuable in languages that lack inheritance and becomes more powerful in languages that have inheritance.

• Without inheritance, dependency injection lets the container control constructor arguments . "Resolve for me an object of type Carrot and use whatever constructor arguments you would like when creating that object."

• With inheritance, dependency injection lets the container also control implementation . "Resolve for me an object of type IVegetable and use whatever implementation and/or constructor arguments you would like."
