JPA annotation @Autowired

Is @Autowired the same as extends?

Let's look at a small example:

package com.dendetech.services;

import com.dendetech.entity.Participante; import com.dendetech.repositories.PartnerRepository; import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired; import org.springframework.stereotype.Service;

@Service public class ParticipantService {

@Autowired
private ParticipanteRepository participanteRepository;

/*
 * Crud Operations
 */
