Define your classes

We want a car, and a car needs an engine (sadly):

class Car {
    private var engine:LittleEngine;
    public function Car(engine:LittleEngine){
      this.engine = engine;
    }

    public function startCar():void {
        engine.start();
    }
}

Ok, Dawn, Build Me The Car

                var car:Car = Car( injector.inject( Car ) );
                car.startCar();

Job done… Dawn created our Car, with its LittleEngine… it gets more exciting later on, I promise.
