StructureMap 3 Breaking Change

In previous versions of StructureMap, I have a code like this:

_container.Configure(config => 
    config
        .For<ILogger>.Use<TLogger>.Ctor<string>("loggerName")
        .Is((IContext ctx) => ctx.Root.RequestedType.ToString))

Using this, I was able to pass the class name to my logger and it was very helpful in auto wiring scenarios.

After updating to StrucureMap 3, the above code shows error and I cannot find the right code for StructureMap 3.

TL;DR; Where is Context.Root? How can I access it in StructureMap 3?

Solution

  • Looks like I was wrong in the first place.

    Instead of Context.Root, I can use Context.ParentType and accomplish what I wanted.

    A sample, available in this link: http://docs.structuremap.net/UsingSessionContext.htm#section1 (Logger Sample)helped me find the solution.
