Converting CastleWindsor-code to Unity-code

I used the write the following in Windsor Castle :

public void Install(IWindsorContainer container, IConfigurationStore store)
    {
        //Makes sure we only get one DbConnection
        container.Register(Component.For<IMyMusicSession>().UsingFactoryMethod(_ => new MyMusicSession("MyMusicDb")).LifestylePerWebRequest());
    }

How can I do the same in MS Unity? I'm new to Unity, so that's why I ask the question. The "MyMusicDb" is actually the name of the connectionstring as written in the web.config.

Solution

  • Here is how you can do it:

    var container = new UnityContainer();

container.RegisterType<IMyMusicSession>(
    new PerRequestLifetimeManager(),
    new InjectionFactory(c => new MyMusicSession("MyMusicDb")));

    Be sure to install the Unity.Mvc NuGet package.
