Structure map and generics (in XML config)
- by James D
Hi
I'm using the latest StructureMap (2.5.4.264), and I need to define some instances in the xml configuration for StructureMap using generics. However I get the following 103 error:
Unhandled Exception: StructureMap.Exceptions.StructureMapConfigurationException: StructureMap configuration failures:
Error: 103
Source:
Requested PluginType MyTest.ITest`1[[MyTest.Test,MyTest]] configured in Xml cannot be found
Could not create a Type for 'MyTest.ITest`1[[MyTest.Test,MyTest]]'

A simply replication of the code is as follows:
public interface ITest<T>
{
}
public class Test
{
}
public class Concrete : ITest<Test>
{
}
Which I then wish to define in the XML configuration something as follows:
<DefaultInstance
PluginType="MyTest.ITest`1[[MyTest.Test,MyTest]],MyTest"
PluggedType="MyTest.Concrete,MyTest"
Scope="Singleton"
/>
I've been racking my brain, however I can't see what I'm doing wrong - I've used Type.GetType to verify the type actually is valid which it is. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks !
