- Field Detail
  - UNSCOPED
```
public static final Scoping UNSCOPED
```
    No scoping annotation has been applied. Note that this is different from in(Scopes.NO_SCOPE), where the 'NO_SCOPE' has been explicitly applied.
  - SINGLETON_ANNOTATION
```
public static final Scoping SINGLETON_ANNOTATION
```
  - SINGLETON_INSTANCE
```
public static final Scoping SINGLETON_INSTANCE
```
  - EAGER_SINGLETON
```
public static final Scoping EAGER_SINGLETON
```

  - forAnnotation
```
public static Scoping forAnnotation(Class<? extends Annotation> scopingAnnotation)
```
  - forInstance
```
public static Scoping forInstance(Scope scope)
```
  - isExplicitlyScoped
```
public boolean isExplicitlyScoped()
```
    Returns true if this scope was explicitly applied. If no scope was explicitly applied then the scoping annotation will be used.
  - isNoScope
```
public boolean isNoScope()
```
    Returns true if this is the default scope. In this case a new instance will be provided for each injection.
  - isEagerSingleton
```
public boolean isEagerSingleton(Stage stage)
```
    Returns true if this scope is a singleton that should be loaded eagerly in stage.
  - getScopeInstance
```
public Scope getScopeInstance()
```
    Returns the scope instance, or null if that isn't known for this instance.
  - getScopeAnnotation
```
public Class<? extends Annotation> getScopeAnnotation()
```
    Returns the scope annotation, or null if that isn't known for this instance.
  - equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)
```
    Overrides:
    
    equals in class Object
  - hashCode
```
