我可以在自定义验证属性的定义中使用依赖项注入吗？

Question

I'm using Prism and Unity for the application, and I have a custom validation attribute that I want to validate the field against a table in the database. I would like to inject the Repository service into the validator, but I haven't figured out how to do it.

I have used the dependency attribute on a property, but that didn't work. The property remained null.

I tried constructor injection, but it conflicts with the attribute signature.

Is this possible? If not, what is another way to accomplish what I'm trying to do?

Answer 1

You get stuff injected into classes that you have the container create for you.

That means, if you create your validator through Resolve or (preferred) have it injected into the class that uses it, constructor injection in the validator itself will work fine. If you create the validator with new or Activator.CreateInstance , there won't be any injection.
