Unity Configuration and Same Assembly
- by tyndall
I'm currently getting an error trying to resolve my IDataAccess class.
The value of the property 'type' cannot be parsed. The error is: Could not load file or assembly 'TestProject' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
(C:\Source\TestIoC\src\TestIoC\TestProject\bin\Debug\TestProject.vshost.exe.config line 14)
This is inside a WPF Application project.
What is the correct syntax to refer to the Assembly you are currently in? is there a way to do this? I know in a larger solution I would be pulling Types from seperate assemblies so this might not be an issue. But what is the right way to do this for a small self-contained test project. Note: I'm only interested in doing the XML config at this time, not the C# (in code) config.
UPDATE: see all comments
My XML config:
<configuration>
<configSections>
<section name="unity" type="Microsoft.Practices.Unity.Configuration.UnityConfigurationSection, Microsoft.Practices.Unity.Configuration" />
</configSections>
<unity>
<typeAliases>
<!-- Lifetime manager types -->
<typeAlias alias="singleton" type="Microsoft.Practices.Unity.ContainerControlledLifetimeManager, Microsoft.Practices.Unity" />
<typeAlias alias="external" type="Microsoft.Practices.Unity.ExternallyControlledLifetimeManager, Microsoft.Practices.Unity" />
<typeAlias alias="IDataAccess" type="TestProject.IDataAccess, TestProject" />
<typeAlias alias="DataAccess" type="TestProject.DataAccess, TestProject" />
</typeAliases>
<containers>
<container name="Services">
<types>
<type type="IDataAccess" mapTo="DataAccess" />
</types>
</container>
</containers>
</unity>
</configuration>
