I've been looking at the Common Service Locator as a way of abstracting my IoC container but I've been noticing that some people are strongly against this type of this. Do people recommend never using it? Always using it? or sometimes using it? If sometimes, then in what situations would you use it and what situations would you not use ...
I'm working on a new project now, and have given some thought to the IoC setup. I'm aware that you shouldn't be depending on the service location pattern (much, anyway), but that there are just a few places in a well-structured application where it may be necessary. In that case, do you use the CommonServiceLocator project, or not bother...
I'm quite sure that IoC is the way to go for my application. There are a ton of articles and even questions here on SO that discuss the different containers. I've read several blogs today with partial examples. I am personally leaning towards starting with the CommonServiceLocator and Unity as two way to solve the same problem -- I ju...

Now the profile object is a CreateProfileDetails type that derives from their own V...

I think i should create kernel in global.aspx and load all modules in it. But how can i make it available throughout application? protected void Application_Start() { Regist...
I am working on a library which needs to make use of the common service locator (http://commonservicelocator.codeplex.com/) to provide generic IOC support in order that we don't conflict with any consumers. Obviously I don't want to reference the IOC frameworks directly in my project but I'm unsure as to how to annotate the parts such t...
Is is possible to get the container instance back from ServiceLocation? I only see the ability to resolve instances of types, not register them. ...
Changes in Ninject 2 say that Ninject support Common Service Locator, but how do I use it? I don't find any manual or sample. ...
Does the Common Service Locator, used for "providing an abstraction over IoC containers and service locators", support Mono .NET? ...
