I am using ASP.MVC 4
and Autofac
.
I have registered the following in my global.asax.cs
file:
ContainerBuilder builder = new ContainerBuilder();
builder.Register(c => c.Resolve<HttpContextBase>().Request)
.As<HttpRequestBase>()
.InstancePerHttpRequest();
builder.Register(c => c.Resolve<HttpContextBase>().Response)
.As<HttpResponseBase>()
.InstancePerHttpRequest();
builder.Register(c => c.Resolve<HttpContextBase>().Server)
.As<HttpServerUtilityBase>()
.InstancePerHttpRequest();
builder.Register(c => c.Resolve<HttpContextBase>().Session)
.As<HttpSessionStateBase>()
.InstancePerHttpRequest();
builder.RegisterControllers(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly());
builder.RegisterType<WebWorkContext>().As<IWorkContext>().InstancePerHttpRequest();
In my Home controller I have this (just for testing purposes):
private readonly HttpContextBase httpContext;
public HomeController(HttpContextBase httpContext)
{
this.httpContext = httpContext;
}
I used the exact same code with an ASP.NET MVC 3 project and it worked fine. Now in this project I am getting errors. Not sure why? The error that I am getting is:
None of the constructors found with 'Autofac.Core.Activators.Reflection.DefaultConstructorFinder' on type 'MyProject.Web.Controllers.HomeController' can be invoked with the available services and parameters: Cannot resolve parameter 'System.Web.HttpContextBase httpContext' of constructor 'Void .ctor(System.Web.HttpContextBase)'. at Autofac.Core.Activators.Reflection.ReflectionActivator.ActivateInstance(IComponentContext context, IEnumerable1 parameters) at Autofac.Core.Resolving.InstanceLookup.Activate(IEnumerable
1 parameters) at Autofac.Core.Resolving.InstanceLookup.Execute() at Autofac.Core.Resolving.ResolveOperation.GetOrCreateInstance(ISharingLifetimeScope currentOperationScope, IComponentRegistration registration, IEnumerable1 parameters) at Autofac.Core.Resolving.InstanceLookup.ResolveComponent(IComponentRegistration registration, IEnumerable
1 parameters) at Autofac.Core.Registration.ExternalRegistrySource.<
I'm not too sure why this won't work? Do I need to do things differently in ASP.NET 4?
I have a separate project in which I also want to inject HttpContextBase
and I am getting the same error.
Thanks to nemesv

I ended up replacing:
builder.Register(c => c.Resolve<HttpContextBase>().Request)
.As<HttpRequestBase>()
.InstancePerHttpRequest();
builder.Register(c => c.Resolve<HttpContextBase>().Response)
.As<HttpResponseBase>()
.InstancePerHttpRequest();
builder.Register(c => c.Resolve<HttpContextBase>().Server)
.As<HttpServerUtilityBase>()
.InstancePerHttpRequest();
builder.Register(c => c.Resolve<HttpContextBase>().Session)
.As<HttpSessionStateBase>()
.InstancePerHttpRequest();
...with just:
builder.RegisterModule(new AutofacWebTypesModule());
It works now. Not sure what the difference is but the code in the module looks exactly the same as mine above.
