When creating a StructureMap container, I typically do something like this:
var container = new Container(registry => {
registry.AddRegistry<MyRegistry>();
});
Where
public class MyRegistry : Registry {
public MyRegistry() {
Scan(x => {
x.Assembly("My.Assembly.Name");
x.RegisterConcreteTypesAgainstTheFirstInterface();
}
}
}
However, this has resulted in quite many registry.AddRegistry
lines in a bootstrapper file, which is then copied into many projects. I would like to be able to call a method taking a constructed container and adding a registry to it, so I can modularize libraries.
I came up with this:
public static void Setup(ref Container container) {
container.PluginGraph.ImportRegistry(typeof(MyRegistry));
}
This works, in that the registry is properly added to the container (seen by calling container.WhatDoIHave()
before and after), but it seems the actual mappings are not done - ie the interface IFoo
is not registered to concrete class Foo
that both are defined in My.Assembly.Name
.
What is the difference in doing ImportRegistry
and AddRegistry
? Can my Setup
method be fixed?
