Windsor Container: How to specify a public property should not be filled by the container?

Question

When Instantiating a class, Windsor by default treats all public properties of the class as optional dependencies and tries to satisfy them. In my case, this creates a rath

I do not know which version of Castle you guys were using at that time, but none of the solution mentioned were working. Plus, there is a lot of dead links.

With castle 3.1, here the solution I came up with (thanks to some castle source code digging):

container.Register(Component.For(type)
                                        .LifestyleTransient()
                                        .Properties( propertyInfo => propertyInfo.PropertyType != typeof(MyOtherType)));

The 'Properties' function adds a property filter used by castle when constructing the ComponentModel. In my case, all properties dependency will be satisfied except the property type 'MyOtherType'.
