+	| Inversion of Control Container
+	|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+	|
+	| Here you may define resolvers for the Laravel inversion of control (IoC)
+	| container. An IoC container provides the ability to create more flexible
+	| and testable applications, as well as a convenient method of managing
+	| the instantiation of complex objects.
+	|
+	| To register a resolver in the container, simple create add an item to
+	| the array for the object with a closure that returns an instance of
+	| the object.
+	|
+	| For example, here's how to register a resolver for a Mailer class:
+	|
+	|		'mailer' => function($c)
+	|		{
+	|			return new Mailer($sender, $key);
+	|		}
+	|
+	| Note that the container instance itself is passed into the resolver,
+	| allowing you to continue to resolve dependencies within the resolver
+	| itself. This allows you to easily resolve nested dependencies.
+	|
+	| When creating controller instances, Laravel will check to see if a
+	| resolver has been registered for the controller. If it has, it will
+	| be used to create the controller instance. All controller resolvers
+	| should be registered beginning using a {controllers}.{name} naming
+	| convention. For example:
+	|
+	|		'controllers.user' => function($c)
+	|		{
+	|			return new User_Controller($c->resolve('repository'));
+	|		}
+	|
+	| Of course, sometimes you may wish to register an object as a singleton
+	| Singletons are resolved by the controller the first time they are
+	| resolved; however, that same resolved instance will continue to be
+	| returned by the container each time it is requested. Registering an
+	| object as a singleton couldn't be simpler:
+	|
+	|		'mailer' => array('singleton' => true, 'resolver' => function($c)
+	|		{
+	|			return new Mailer($sender, $key);
+	|		})
+	|
