Question

How do I connect the various pieces of my Web API Castle Windsor DI code so that the Controller\'s routing selects the correct interface implementation?

Don't want to repeat everything again, so just check out my answer on How do I get Web API / Castle Windsor to recognize a Controller?.

As another note - I would advise against doing anything in your repository constructors if you can help it. The reason I say this is that the constructors get called as Windsor is trying to instantiate the correct instance of your repository. What this means is that if any kind of error occurs, it happens as WebApi is trying to create the controller. This can make it a bit tricky to track down the problem sometimes, and also ends up hiding the real issues under tons of layers of exceptions.
