使用StructureMap中的开放泛型进行自定义构造

Question

I have a typical repository interface, IRepository<T> , and lots of concrete repositories. Most of the concrete repositories look like this:

class ConcreteRepository<T> : IRepository<T> { .. }

These are easy to register with StructureMap:

For(typeof(IRepository<>)).Use(typeof(ConcreteRepository<>));

However, a select few of my concrete repositories look like this:

class AbnormalRepository<T1, T2> : IRepository<T1>, IAbnormal<T2> { .. }

I still want to use these abnormal repositories as IRepository<T> s, so for these I'm currently using special rules:

// this sucks!
For(typeof(IRepository<Foo1>)).Use(typeof(AbnormalRepository<Foo1, Bar1>));
For(typeof(IRepository<Foo2>)).Use(typeof(AbnormalRepository<Foo2, Bar2>));

It would be nice if I could just specify a function that StructureMap could use to construct my repositories, since I know that all of my abnormal repositories implement IAbnormal<T> . Any ideas?

Answer 1

Create a custom IRegistrationConvention and call it from within the Scan() method of your container configuration.

You can see an example of this discussed on another stackoverflow question:

StructureMap IRegistrationConvention to register non default naming convention?

You can also see a number of IRegistrationConvention examples within the StructureMap source code itself.

Answer 2

I'm not following your use case all the way, but you can use a function (lambda actually) to construct your object. Use either of the two overloads:

// lambda with no params
For<IRepository<Foo1>>().Use(() => { ... });
// context is a StructureMap SessionContext
For<IRepository<Foo1>>().Use(context => { ... }); 

To see what is available off SessionContext, check out http://structuremap.github.com/structuremap/UsingSessionContext.htm

ADDED:

using System;
using NUnit.Framework;
using StructureMap;

namespace SMTest2
{
    public interface IRepository<T> {}
    public class AbnormalRepository<T,T2> : IRepository<T>{ }

    [TestFixture]
    public class TestOpenGeneric
    {
        private IContainer _container   ;

        [SetUp]
        public void DescribeContainer()
        {
            _container = new Container(cfg => 
                cfg.For(typeof (IRepository<>)).Use(ctx => new AbnormalRepository<String, int>()));
        }

        [Test]
        public void TestItWorks()
        {
            var stringVector = _container.GetInstance(typeof (IRepository<>));
            Assert.IsInstanceOf<AbnormalRepository<String,int>>(stringVector);
        }
    }
