If I have two constructors for a class, how does the service container choose which one to use when I'm registering that service in ConfigureServices?
So lets say I have a class called MyClass
with a corresponding interface IMyClass
. In the ConfigureServices()
method I call the following line of code
services.AddScoped<IMyClass, MyClass>();
How does it choose which constructor to use if I have the following constructors?
MyClass(ILogger logger)
MyClass(ILogger logger, IConfguration configuration)
The constructor matching is performed by a method called CallSiteFactory:CreateConstructorCallSite . Based on its source code, the algorithm is the following:
To clarify when there can be an ambiguity, consider these ctors:
MyClass(ILogger logger)
MyClass(IConfguration configuration)
The DI engine can't decide which one to use, because both have valid parameters that can be injected.
In the following case however, there's no ambiguity because the int
type isn't registered in the DI engine, and thus can't be injected via DI, and thus the first ctor will be chosen:
MyClass(ILogger logger)
MyClass(int i)
So to answer your question: in your case, the second constructor will be used.
I tested it out with the following cases;
1 with an interface (registered), 1 with an interface and a primitive parameter (not registered)
public Application(ITestClass testClass)
public Application(ITestClass testClass, string message)
It choses the first one.
1 with an interface (registered), 1 with two interfaces (registered)
public Application(ITestClass testClass)
public Application(ITestClass testClass, ITestClass2 testClass2)
It choses the second one.
1 with an interface (registered), 1 with 2 interfaces (registered) and 1 primitive parameter (not registered)
public Application(ITestClass testClass)
public Application(ITestClass testClass, ITestClass2 testClass2, string message)
It choses the first one again.
When I registered the string type, it started to choose the second one.
So the long story short, it will try to find the most comprehensive one with the only known dependencies.
