Question

Answer 1

Here are few examples. Check out Ninject source project and its Tests subproject for various samples of usage, that's the best documentation for it, especially since docs haven't been updated for v2 yet.

// usage of WhenClassHas attribute
Bind<IRepository>().To<XmlDefaultRepository>().WhenClassHas<PageAttribute>().WithConstructorArgument("contentType", ContentType.Page);
// usage of WhenInjectedInto
Bind<IRepository>().To<XmlDefaultRepository>().WhenInjectedInto(typeof(ServicesController));
Bind<IRepository>().To<XmlDefaultRepository>().WhenInjectedInto(typeof(PageController)).WithConstructorArgument("contentType", ContentType.Page);
Bind<IRepository>().To<XmlDefaultRepository>().WhenInjectedInto(typeof(WidgetZoneController)).WithConstructorArgument("contentType", ContentType.WidgetZone);
// you can also do this
Bind<IRepository>().To<PageRepository>().WhenInjectedInto(typeof(PageController)).WithConstructorArgument("contentType", ContentType.Page);
Bind<IRepository>().To<WidgetZoneRepository>().WhenInjectedInto(typeof(WidgetZoneController)).WithConstructorArgument("contentType", ContentType.WidgetZone);
// or this if you don't need any parameters to your constructor
Bind<IRepository>().To<PageRepository>().WhenInjectedInto(typeof(PageController));
Bind<IRepository>().To<WidgetZoneRepository>().WhenInjectedInto(typeof(WidgetZoneController));
// usage of ToMethod()  
Bind<HttpContextBase>().ToMethod(context => new HttpContextWrapper(HttpContext.Current));
