WPF unity Activation error occured while trying to get instance of type
- by Traci
I am getting the following error when trying to Initialise the Module using Unity and Prism. The DLL is found by
return new DirectoryModuleCatalog() { ModulePath = @".\Modules" };
The dll is found and the Name is Found
#region Constructors
public AdminModule(
IUnityContainer container,
IScreenFactoryRegistry screenFactoryRegistry,
IEventAggregator eventAggregator,
IBusyService busyService
)
: base(container, screenFactoryRegistry)
{
this.EventAggregator = eventAggregator;
this.BusyService = busyService;
}
#endregion
#region Properties
protected IEventAggregator EventAggregator { get; set; }
protected IBusyService BusyService { get; set; }
#endregion
public override void Initialize()
{
base.Initialize();
}
#region Register Screen Factories
protected override void RegisterScreenFactories()
{
this.ScreenFactoryRegistry.Register(ScreenKeyType.ApplicationAdmin, typeof(AdminScreenFactory));
}
#endregion
#region Register Views and Various Services
protected override void RegisterViewsAndServices()
{
//View Models
this.Container.RegisterType<IAdminViewModel, AdminViewModel>();
}
#endregion
the code that produces the error is:
namespace Microsoft.Practices.Composite.Modularity
protected virtual IModule CreateModule(string typeName)
{
Type moduleType = Type.GetType(typeName);
if (moduleType == null)
{
throw new ModuleInitializeException(string.Format(CultureInfo.CurrentCulture, Properties.Resources.FailedToGetType, typeName));
}
return (IModule)this.serviceLocator.GetInstance(moduleType); <-- Error Here
}
Can Anyone Help Me
