Kas saaksite selgitada komponendi kontseptsiooni Springis ja kuidas seda rakendustes kasutatakse?

In Spring, a component is an object managed by the Spring container (IoC container). The @Component annotation is used to mark a class as a component so that Spring automatically creates its instance and injects dependencies.

Components enable the implementation of the inversion of control (IoC) principle and facilitate dependency management.

Example:

import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;

@Component
public class MyService {
    public void doWork() {
        System.out.println("Work completed");
    }
}

This component can then be injected into other classes using @Autowired:

import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;

@Controller
public class MyController {
    private final MyService myService;

    @Autowired
    public MyController(MyService myService) {
        this.myService = myService;
    }

    public void process() {
        myService.doWork();
    }
}

Thus, components simplify code organization and dependency management in the application.
