Kernel.Get<IInterface<T>> with T only known at runtime

[schaibaa]

Hello,

I am wondering if something along these lines this is possible..

Lets say Foo : Bar
and Moo : Bar



void DoSomething(Bar b){

Kernel.Get<IService<b.GetType()>>();
}

Then I have bindings like:

Bind<IService<Foo>>
Bind<IService<Moo>>

Thanks!

You're looking for MakeGenericType.

 

It can be used to generate the

    IService<b.GetType()>

portion by doing

    Type closedGenericType = typeofI<IService<>>).MakeGenericType(b.GetType())

 

The final piece is that alongside Get<T>(), there is a non-generic variant, Get(Type) which you use as follows:

 

var instance = Kernel.Get(closedGenericType);

 

Search "Open Generic Types" (and maybe repository) and you should find a good article or two.
