Question

I’ve created a controller factory and registered my types in code. I can do the following:

public class HomeController : Controller
{
    public MasterEntities DbContext { get { return Container.Resolve<MasterEntities>(); } 
    }

    public ActionResult Index()
    {
        //DbContext can be used here properly...
    }
}

However I would like to have the property injected in the setter instead of having to call Container.Resolve<TypeName>() explicitly. Preferrable without using attributes or some configuration in code…

public MasterEntities DbContext { get; set; } 

How can this be configured in my .config file? Or does this require the use of attributes or configuration in code?

Answer 1

<register type="HomeController">
  <property name="DbContext" />
</register>

should do the trick.
