constructor-injection

I'm trying to use Spring to inject a SLF4J logger into a class like so: @Component public class Example { private final Logger logger; @Autowired public Example(final Logger logger) { this.logger = logger; } } I've found the FactoryBean class, which I've implemented. But the problem is that I cannot get any information about the injection target: public class LoggingFactoryBean implements FactoryBean<Logger> { @Override public Class<?> getObjectType() { return Logger.class; } @Override public boolean isSingleton() { return false; } @Override public Logger getObject() throws Exception { return

When a view model is created you can populate the options (e.g. used in a dropdown list) into a setter property of the view model. The problem is that when that view model is later passed as a parameter (by the framework!) into an action method, those property values has not become automagically repopulated, so if you need to redisplay the form because of validation errors, you need to repopulate those options again. One potential solution, which I am asking for specifically in this question, is how to make the MVC framework instantiate the view model with constructor injection, which would

I'm using C# with Microsoft's Unity framework. I'm not quite sure how to solve this problem. It probably has something to do with my lack of understanding DI with Unity. My problem can be summed up using the following example code: class Train(Person p) { ... } class Bus(Person p) { ... } class Person(string name) { ... } Person dad = new Person("joe"); Person son = new Person("timmy"); When I call the resolve method on Bus how can I be sure that the Person 'son' with the name 'timmy' is injected and when resolving Train how can I be sure that Person 'dad' with then name 'joe' is resolved? I'm

I am using Microsoft's Unity for dependency injection and I want to do something like this: IDataContext context = _unityContainer.Resolve<IDataContext>(); var repositoryA = _unityContainer.Resolve<IRepositoryA>(context); //Same instance of context var repositoryB = _unityContainer.Resolve<IRepositoryB>(context); //Same instance of context IDataContext context2 = _unityContainer.Resolve<IDataContext>(); //New instance var repositoryA2 = _unityContainer.Resolve<IRepositoryA>(context2); RepositoryA and RepositoryB both have a constructor that takes an IDataContext parameter, and I want Unity to
