  org.tinyjee.maven.dim.spi.backport.ServiceLoader

public class ServiceLoader
extends Object

Minimum efforts backport of ServiceLoader found in Java 1.6 to be used in Java 1.5.

(May not behave in the same way and is meant to support adapter bindings only)

Note: This implementation searches inside "META-INF/services/typeName" and "typePackage/typeName.services". The latter is not standards compliant, but it works on Android where getting something into META-INF is quite an issue.
