Today I was trying to retrofit the source code from Stephen Bohlen’s great SOLID Dimecasts on Dependency Inversion (episode will be released on 3/26/2009) in order to have it use StructureMap (in order to better show the DIP concept in the episode Stephen did not show the use of an IoC container). ...

In a previous post I talked about how you can setup StructureMap to create and use profiles . In this post I would to show you how you can swap out an instance of an object which is part of the profile with a fake/stub for testing. I ran into this scenario the other day while creating a test and...

In a previous post I talked about how you can setup Contextual Binding and Profiles with StructureMap 2.5. However since this post was published, the way you can configure Profiles has changed. Because of this I thought I would post a follow-up on how to do this. I also wanted to give...

*** There may be a better way to do this with StructureMap, but this is the way I was able to get this to work *** Today I decided I wanted to move all my route mapping for Dimecasts out of the Global.asax file and into each of the various Controllers. I wanted to do this for two reasons. I was starting...

One of the great new features with StructureMap 2.5 is the ability to have the container auto-wire you dependencies. This means that if you want to you do not need to register all your types. Prior to this release if you wanted to map IFoo to Foo you needed to do something like this: StructureMapConfiguration...

If you have not checked out the new AutoMocking Container that is part of StructureMap 2.5 I would highly suggest you do, it rocks. I thought I would show how simple it is to create a PartialMock on the Class under Test (CUT) when using the RhinoAutoMocker. Our Class we want to mock public class VisitReassignmentRule...

I have been giving the AutoMocker that is part of StructureMap 2.5 a go lately. Today I was trying to setup my test and I get running into the following error: failed: StructureMap.StructureMapException: StructureMap Exception Code: 230 Cannot call "FillDependencies" on type IGatheringPipeline...

One of the really great things about the ASP.Net MVC framework is how extendable it is. One area of extension is in the area of controller creation. The framework allows you to replace the default ControllerFactory with your own factory and because of this we can incorporate Inversion of Control/Dependency...

With the most recent drop of StrcutreMap (2.4.9 -- aka 2.5) you now have the ability to put your wiring information inside the app.config file. Prior to this you needed to either use the StructureMap.config file or wire your dependencies up in code. So today I thought I would simply review how to use...

Today I was putting together a test app for a few presentations I am doing in the coming weeks (announcements on these coming soon). While doing this I kept getting a 101 exception when trying to build an object via StructureMap's ObjectFactory (error information here ). Error message Assembly...

This is just a short FYI post because this caused me some headache recently. One thing to keep in mind when you are using StrucutreMap and are Injecting Stubs into the ObjectFactory, you will want to reset the ObjectFactory engine after you done with your tests. To do this you will need to add this line...
