# isAutowireCandidate method

1. @override

bool isAutowireCandidate(

1. String podName,
2. DependencyDescriptor descriptor

)
override

Checks if a pod is a candidate for autowiring for the given dependency.

This method considers various factors including dependency type, qualifiers, and other autowiring conditions.

## Usage Example:

    final candidate = factory.isAutowireCandidate('userService', descriptor);
    if (candidate) {
      print('userService is a valid autowire candidate for this dependency');
    }

@param podName The name of the pod to check @param descriptor The dependency descriptor @return true if the pod is a valid autowire candidate

## Implementation

    @override
    bool isAutowireCandidate(String podName, DependencyDescriptor descriptor) {
      // Check if dependency type is ignored
      if (isTypeIgnored(descriptor.type)) {
        return false;
      }

      // Check if dependency interface is ignored
      if (isInterfaceIgnored(descriptor.type)) {
        return false;
      }

      final name = transformedPodName(podName);

      try {
        if (containsDefinition(name)) {
          return _isAutowireCandidate(podName, getLocalMergedPodDefinition(podName), descriptor);
        } else if (containsSingleton(name)) {
          final singletonClass = getSingletonClass(name);
          if (singletonClass == null) {
            return false;
          }

          return _isAutowireCandidate(podName, RootPodDefinition(type: singletonClass), descriptor);
        }

        // Check parent factory if available
        final parent = getParentFactory();
        if (parent != null && parent is ConfigurableListablePodFactory) {
          return parent.isAutowireCandidate(podName, descriptor);
        }

        return true;
      } catch (e) {
        return false;
      }
    }
