I am wiring up my first SubSonic 3 application (in an ASP.NET MVC 1.0 front-end) and am looking at Rob’s SimpleRepository. I’m using Castle.Windsor as an injection framework.

In my application startup, I configure Castle to bind a SubSonic SimpleRepository to a SubSonic IRepository. Nothing complicated there. However, the SimpleRepository has a ctor overload which takes two values: a connection string name and a set of SimpleRepositoryOptions. Not having dug too deep into Castle in the past, it’s not clear if there is a way to specify the ctor arguments via configuration (or some other means).

Right now, I have a custom implementation of the SimpleRepository that explicitly creates a SimpleRepository with those arguments in it’s parameterless ctor, but if I want to change these at any point in time, it requires changing the code and recompiling.

Is there a more elegant way to configure Castle to take constructor arguments?

    See this wiki page. What’s called “parameters” on that page is either a constructor parameter (which is a required parameter) or a property (optional parameter)
