Hi,

The following are all equivelent and are the recomended approach in case where 
there is one dependency for each role

* "org.proj.MyService"
* Service.class.getName()
* Servce.ROLE

In the case where you have multiple dependencys in same role you generally 
postfix them with "/" and then some arbitary string such as

* "org.proj.MyService/store"
* Service.class.getName() + "/store"
* Servce.ROLE + "/store"

Other different classes of dependencys include postfixing with "[]" to get an 
array returned, postfixing with "{}" to get a java.util.Map of dependencies 
returned or postfixing with "Selector" to get a Selector returned. Using 
Selectors is considered bad practice and while not deprecated yet is likely 
to be in the future. Array and Map dependencies are only implemented in 
Phoenix.
