I am trying to use reflection and ninject on the same project. Here is my code :
Type type = Type.GetType("MySolution.Project.Web.App_Code.DataClass");
MethodInfo theMethod = type.GetMethod("Events_ListAll");
object classInstance = Activator.CreateInstance(type, null);
And here is my class that contains that method:
public class DataClass
{
private IEventService eventService;
public DataClass(IEventService eventService)
{
this.eventService = eventService;
}
public String Events_ListAll()
{
List<Event> lstEvents = eventService.GetEvents().ToList<Event>();
return "";
}
}
I get an error saying that there is no constructor found. The solution to that would be to ad an empty default constructor, but that wont inject class I want. Is there any workaround to solve this?
You will need a concrete instance of IEventService
to pass as parameter to ctor of DataClass
, like this Activator.CreateInstance(type, instance);
, so you got many approaches to do that, see 2 of :
That class where you doing the reflection has a concrete instance of
IEventService
and then you just pass as param to the Activator:
public class Foo
{
public Foo(IEventService eventService)
{
Type type = Type.GetType("MySolution.Project.Web.App_Code.DataClass");
MethodInfo theMethod = type.GetMethod("Events_ListAll");
object classInstance = Activator.CreateInstance(type, eventService);
}
}
If you are using
NinjectWebCommom
you can just change the bootstrapper prop to public and get the kernel like thisNinjectWebCommom.bootstrapper.Kernel.get<IEventService>()
Type type = Type.GetType("MySolution.Project.Web.App_Code.DataClass");
MethodInfo theMethod = type.GetMethod("Events_ListAll");
object classInstance = Activator.CreateInstance(type, Kernel.Get<IEventService>());
