• constructor-based injection

class Sandwich {

    this.toppings = toppings;
    this.breadType = breadType;
  }

}

setter-based injection

@Component
class Cookie {

  private Topping toppings;

  @Autowired
  void setTopping(Topping toppings) {
    this.toppings = toppings;
  }
}

field-based injection.
@Component
class Pizza {

  @Autowired
  private Topping toppings;
}
