Question

I have a binding of an interface to a concrete class thus

_ninjectKernal.Bind<IAuctionContext>().To<AuctionContext>()

What I want to do in my code is get the concrete class for the interface IAuctionContext. So I want to do something like this

IAuctionContext context = .GetBinding();

Where context will be of type AuctionContext.

Is this possible. I’ve done similar stuff with StructureMap in the past.

Answer 1

// get access to the "container"
IKernel kernel = new StandardKernel(.....);

// use kernel, as you would any other container
var context = kernel.Get<IAuctionContext>();

Note – If you are using dependency injection you should shy away from calling Get( ... ) in “Kernel” (or Container.GetInstance( ... ) in StructureMap) directly.
