IContainer Interface |
Creates, wires dependencies and manages lifetime for a set of components.
Most instances of IContainer are created
by a ContainerBuilder.
Namespace: Autofac
Assembly: Autofac (in Autofac.dll) Version: 6.0.0+39696a967e8826f7f1ebc8c1ff4523c9dd75abe0
SyntaxThe IContainer type exposes the following members.
Properties| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | ComponentRegistry |
Gets the associated services with the components that provide them.
(Inherited from IComponentContext.) |
| DiagnosticSource |
Gets the DiagnosticListener to which
trace events should be written.
|
| Disposer |
Gets the disposer associated with this ILifetimeScope.
Component instances can be associated with it manually if required.
(Inherited from ILifetimeScope.) |
| Tag |
Gets the tag applied to the ILifetimeScope.
(Inherited from ILifetimeScope.) |

Component instances created via the new scope
will be disposed along with it.
(Inherited from ILifetimeScope.) |
| BeginLifetimeScope(Object, ActionContainerBuilder) |
Begin a new nested scope, with additional components available to it.

Remarks
Most IContainer functionality is provided by extension methods
on the inherited IComponentContext interface.
Examples// See ContainerBuilder for the definition of the builder variable using (var container = builder.Build()) { var program = container.Resolve<Program>(); program.Run(); }
