+    Invokable configurators for services were introduced in Symfony 4.3.

+Services can be configured via invokable configurators (replacing the
+``configure()`` method with ``__invoke()``) by omitting the method name, just as
+route definitions can reference :ref:`invokable
+controllers <controller-service-invoke>`.

+    $container->getDefinition(NewsletterManager::class)

+
+    $container->getDefinition(GreetingCardManager::class)
+        ->setConfigurator(new Reference(EmailConfigurator::class));
+
 That's it! When requesting the ``App\Mail\NewsletterManager`` or
 ``App\Mail\GreetingCardManager`` service, the created instance will first be
 passed to the ``EmailConfigurator::configure()`` method.
