Question

I have the following code:

class Controller
{
     public Controller(Listener audioListener,
                       Listener videoListener)
     {}
}

class Listener
{
     public Listener(int port)
     {
          Console.WriteLine(port);
     }
}

Now I need that the Listener is resolved one time with audioPort and the other with videoPort.

var audioPort = 1330;
var videoPort = 1331;
var controller = kernel.Get<Controller>(); // should print 1330 and 1331

So far I’ve done this when binding with WithConstructorArgument that takes a callback. I was wondering if I can set the callback when actually resolving the type?

Answer 1

I did a little research, and obviously the problem is different.

The arguments are run-time dependencies. And the way I wanted to do this, is related to the service locator pattern, which is complicated in testing.

A better way of using run-time arguments is explained here.
