Making Unity work more like the others

Sat, 18 Apr 2009 00:16:14 GMT

I love MS Unity as an IoC container, it has some great features. Though I found it to function incorrectly at two points (it's not that the path chosen by the Unity team is incorrect, I just want/excpect it to act differently). The first thing that bothered me was the fact that Unity throws an exception when Resolve<T> is not able to resolve the given type: I'd prefer it to return null instead, hence most containers do that. The second, even more irritating point, was that ResolveAll<T> only returned the named instances/types instead of all registered types

Use Event Aggregator to make your application more extensible

Recently, in KiGG/DotNetShoutout we have integrated Twitter, nothing complex, very basic thing like when a story is submitted or appears in the front page it will broadcast in Twitter and like our feed it will post the short url of the original story (Cant resist to do some shameless marketing for DotNetShoutout). Since it is a new requirement, initially I have modified the StoryService constructor to include the twitter client as a new argument and use it after the story is added in the database, the code is something like the following:...

Implementing UnitOfWork Pattern In Linq To SQL Application In my previous post, I have shown how to create Linq to Sql Repository which will have the maximum code coverage, In this post, I will show a simple UnitOfWork class which will flash the changes back to your database. I will be again use my ongoing UnityCommonServiceLocatorMVC project. Lets assume that in your ASP.NET MVC application you have a method in your controller which will add a category and its associate product in the Northwind database.

Unity - Dependency Injection and Inversion of Control Container

Tue, 09 Sep 2008 22:01:14 GMT

Dependency injection is a programming technique to reduce component coupling. Dependency injection is also commonly known as "inversion of control" or IoC or sometimes as The Hollywood Principle - "Don't call us, we'll call you". The goal of dependency injection is to separate the concerns of how a dependency is obtained from the core concerns of a boundary. This improves reusability by enabling components to be supplied with dependencies which may vary depending on context.

Dependency Injection: Factory vs Container - Unity

Mon, 30 Jun 2008 08:19:25 GMT

As application size and complexity increase it becomes more and more difficult to reuse existing components and integrating these components to form an interconnected architecture because of the dependencies of the components. One way to reduce dependencies is by using Dependency Injection, which allows you to inject objects into a class, rather than relying on the class to create the object itself.
