Question

I am trying to get WCF work with Structuremap. I took most of the code from Jimmy Bogard’s blog
Integrating StructureMap with WCF

I am reusing all my objects (Domain, NHIBERNATE , Service layer ) that was created for ASP.nET MVC application.I have a separate IoC Library where I bootstrap all regisrties

I have added global.asax and in Application Start Event this is what I have :

var webServiceRegistry = new WebServiceRegistry();
var bootStrapper = new IoC.BootStrapper();
bootStrapper.Start();

WebServiceRegistry is a normal class and in its constructor I have the following:

 var appUser = new AppUser
            {
                Role = userDto.Role,
                Email = userDto.Email,
                Id = userDto.Id,
                CompanyName = dealerDto.Name,
                Name = userDto.Name,
                IsImpersonated = false,
                Impersonater = Guid.Empty
            };
            System.Threading.Thread.CurrentPrincipal = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.User = appUser;
            ObjectFactory.Configure(x => x.For<IAppUser>().Use(appUser));

Everything goes fine – no errors

Things start to fail when my my wcf service class is being instantiated which has a Domainservice object (IDomainServiceObject domainServiceObject) in constructor with 202 error.

The failure is in DomainService Registry where it fails to get default instance of IAppUser

Edit

Initial problem was in that I had error in constructor of StructureMapServiceHost.

Now I dont get any error but I am not getting the instance of IAppUser that I inject. In place of that it creates a new instance of AppUser.

Do anyone have a clue as to why this happens?

I have tried adding HttpContextScope , HybridHttpOrThreadLocalScoped and still same result

I have conformed that at the time all registries are called in bootstrapper IAppUser instance is the once that was provided with values in it (and not created by StructureMap)
In Application Start it does create the whole graph .

As soon as it enters webmethod ILMSUser is a new instance.

Thank you

Since you want the same object back every time you can use singleton

this.For<IAppUser>().Singleton().Use(appUser);
