possible GetObjectsOfType replacement

Question

I have this small piece of code

var idObjects = Spring.Context.Support.ContextRegistry.GetContext()
                      .GetObjectsOfType(typeof (ICustomIn         


        

Answer 1

thanx to Marijin's insight this has been nailed!

Firstly consider this all-purpose utility class

public class ServiceLocatorImplementer : IMethodReplacer
{
    private readonly Type _forType;
    public ServiceLocatorImplementer(Type forType)
    {
        this._forType = forType;
    }

    protected IEnumerable GetAllImplementers()
    {
        var idObjects = Spring.Context.Support.ContextRegistry.GetContext()
            .GetObjectsOfType(_forType);

        return idObjects.Values;
    }

    public object Implement(object target, MethodInfo method, object[] arguments)
    {
        return GetAllImplementers();
    }
}

declare it with this configuration sample

and finally inject to the required target

What is trully great with this methodology is that the underlying GetObjectsOfType is not going to be called until you actually execute GetAllICheImplentations() (unless you try to execute it during spring init which is not going to bode well)
