Remotion Mixins facility

[Lee Henson]

Hi

I've just got a very basic facility working for using re-motion mixins
(www.re-motion.org) with Windsor.

http://github.com/leemhenson/re-motion/tree/c98d2439d8e78a31cc866ecc47a772b5a74ec34f/RemotionFacility

Sample usage is the specs in the project, but sample (notepad) code
would be:

<wherever you are creating your container>

var remotionFacility = new RemotionFacility
(assemblyContainingMyMixins);
container.AddFacility("remotion.facility", remotionFacility);

<register components>

...

<later on>

var component = container.Resolve<ComponentWithAvailableMixins>();
((MyMixin) component).SomeMethod();

Interested to hear of any potential applications. I was wondering
whether you could do something along the lines of RoR's "Acts As <x>"
stuff.

Don't we have mixins already in DP2 ?

It seems remotion uses DP2 for IL generation, but doesn't use its proxying or mixins:

Right, re-motion mixins can do a lot more than DP2 mixins can. Among
other things, they are much higher-level, with declarative
configuration and a friendlier API. It's for the end-user rather than
being infrastructure.

(We do use proxying, btw, but we create our own proxies using DP2's
emitters and AST because we have different requirements.)

I've blogged about our features here:
