Very useful site

Working with the new frameworks of Spring.net and nHibernate I came across this article which has been invaluable sussing out spring. Of course there is the spring manual but when just starting I found it explained many of the concepts of dependency injection that spring is famous for.

In summary spring does a load of the coding for you, you create interfaces for your classes, data access layer, business logic, and presentation layer and then create interfaces for them. Initially I could not understand why you would want to add this extra level of abstraction to the class, but this article explains that spring uses these interfaces to add it's classes to yours making it work. Its class, pun intended.
