• Before you use an IoC tool, some concepts to know first

  JEREMY’s NOTE: I’m trying to rewrite the StructureMap documentation today, and I’m going to blog most of it out here as I finish it until Brendan tells me to stop polluting the main feed. This article is intended to be an introduction to the concepts... Posted Jun 29 2008, 04:40 PM by Jeremy D. Miller with | with 26 comment(s) Filed under: StructureMap

• StructureMap 2.4.9 Preview Release is available

  A preview release of StructureMap 2.5 is available now at http://sourceforge.net/projects/structuremap . The code is completely baked (minus some convenience methods I'm going to throw in), but I'm lagging on the documentation (life has been intruding... Posted Jun 23 2008, 02:17 PM by Jeremy D.

• StructureMap and StoryTeller plans

  Just a quick update on stuff because I got a lot of questions about StoryTeller over the weekend. I'm currently focusing my attention on StructureMap . I'm giving it the Python 3000 treatment and pretty well gutting some of the internals to clean... Posted Apr 23 2008, 09:24 AM by Jeremy D.

• AutoMocker in StructureMap 2.5

  Steve Harman asked me yesterday to show a little demo of the AutoMocking container coming soon in StructureMap 2.5. Honestly, I was very lukewarm to the idea of an "AutoMocking" container at first because I thought it would obfuscate tests.... Posted Feb 09 2008, 11:27 AM by Jeremy D.

• Interception techniques in StructureMap 2.5

  The 2.5 release of StructureMap is at least 6 weeks away, but I'd like to throw some more stuff out to get some feedback while I've got plenty of time to deviate. I'm building in much more interception capabilities into StructureMap to support... Posted Jan 27 2008, 09:21 PM by Jeremy D. Miller with | with 5 comment(s) Filed under: Featured, StructureMap

• Some new ways to build objects in StructureMap with less configuration

  I'm getting close to code complete on the forthcoming 2.5 release of StructureMap and I'm focusing on ease of use features and fullblown interception support for AOP tooling (runtime AOP to be provided by something else though). StructureMap has... Posted Jan 23 2008, 10:48 AM by Jeremy D. Miller with | with 10 comment(s) Filed under: Featured, StructureMap

• Spiking a new syntax for integration tests. Whaddaya think?

  Hello, my name is Jeremy, and I sometimes write unit tests specifications that are uglier than sin. Specifically, when I started to look back at the interaction style tests I've been writing over the past couple years I'm finding a bunch of unit... Posted Jan 17 2008, 02:27 AM by Jeremy D.

• Using StructureMap to build a class that isn't registered with the container

  I had a query this morning about this. Say you're working in the new MVC framework and you write your own routing engine that has a syntax like this: Route("some string pattern").IsHandledBy<MyController>(); Route("some other...

• Spring loading your IoC Container

  Ayende has a post up this morning called Inverting Inversion of Control where he talks about registering services with an IoC container at runtime. Ayende is specifically saying that this technique is useful for injecting services that you either can't... Posted Dec 10 2007, 09:31 AM by Jeremy D.

• Dependency Injection Tools still have some good years left...

  ...as long as we're writing code in a static typed language anyway. Dependency Injection the pattern isn't going away, but it's full time to reconsider Dependency Injection / Inversion of Control tools. A couple weeks ago there was quite a...

• Build your own CAB #14: Managing Menu State with MicroController's, Command's, a Layer SuperType, some StructureMap Pixie Dust, and a Dollop of Fluent Interface

  THIS ARTICLE IN ITS ENTIRETY IS HERE. The title is a mouthful and accurately implies an alarmingly high jargon to code ration, but I just didn't see anyway to write this post without straying into all of these different subjects. When you try to write... Posted Jul 24 2007, 05:29 AM by Jeremy D. Miller with | with 6 comment(s) Filed under: Build your own CAB, Design Patterns, StructureMap

• StructureMap is 3 years old

  Wow, I completely missed this. A couple weeks ago was the 3rd anniversary of StructureMap's initial release (I've been coding on something called StructureMap since at lease 2002 though). Time flies when you're having fun I guess. By the way... Posted Jun 17 2007, 04:57 PM by Jeremy D. Miller with | with 7 comment(s) Filed under: StructureMap

• StructureMap.DataAccess

  I forgot to mention it, but there is a new component being shipped with StructureMap called StructureMap.DataAccess. It's just a little helper component that wraps common ADO.Net manipulation I use when I need traditional DAL functionality (think... Posted Apr 14 2007, 08:48 PM by Jeremy D.

• Introduction to StructureMap 2.0 (Part 1)

  I'm assuming some prior knowledge of Inversion of Control/Dependency Injection tools in this post. The most exciting addition to StructureMap 2.0 for me is the new Fluent Interface API for programmatic configuration of object composition. There are... Posted Apr 09 2007, 07:32 AM by Jeremy D.
