如何注入在Windsor注册的MEF [ImportingConstructor]依赖项？

Question

I'm working on a C#/MVC app that currently uses Windsor as a DI framework, and have just started exploring MEF to make the app more extensible. It's been working beautifully, right up till the point where my plugins need to have dependencies satisfied.

How can I inject Windsor managed dependencies into a class that is imported by MEF, preferably with [ImportingConstructor]?

I've tried extending ContainerAdapterBase from MefContrib but can't figure out how to get it to work with [ImportingConstructor]. Also, using MEF for IoC is not an option.

Thanks!

Update: My current solution is to write a simple 'DSL', managed by Windsor, that provides all the functionality required by plug-ins, and then manually inject that whenever MEF passes me a plug-in instance. Possibly a bit nasty but it works, it also means I don't have to do any service location from plugins, and also provides a nice boundary around what a plugin is 'allowed' to do.

Any thoughts on this approach would be greatly appreciated.
