You can apply annotations that indicate dependency injections (such as `@PersistenceUnit` and

`@PersistenceContext`) on field or methods inside a class -- hence the

expressions "`method-level injection`" and "`field-level injection`". Field-level

annotations are concise and easier to use while method-level annotations allow for further

processing of the injected dependency. In both cases, the member visibility (public,

protected, or private) does not matter.
