List of .NET Dependency Injection Containers (IOC)
I'm trying to expand my mind around dependency injection in .NET (beyond the two frameworks I've personally used) and an starting to put together a list of .NET Dependency Injection Containers and IOC resources.
Here's what I've got so far. What am I missing?
- Castle Windsor based on the Castle MicroKernel.
- StructureMap has been around since June 2004
- Licensed under Apache 2
- Actively developed and approaching v2.5.
- Written by Jeremy D. Miller
- Spring.NET
- Licensed under Apache 2
- Currently 1.1, working on 2.0
- Written by Mark Pollack
- Autofac intends to be IoC with a C# 3.0 flavor, but also supports 2.0.
- Unity
- Licensed as MS-PL
- Recently released
- Written by Chris Tavares.
- Build on the "kernel" of ObjectBuilder:
- ObjectBuilder was formerly MSFT's only public foray into DI/IoC
- Puzzle.NFactory
- Ninject formerly "Titan"
- Licensed under Apache 2
- Was quiet, but has recently sprung back to life.
- Written by Nate Kohari
- S2Container.NET on version 1.3.7.
- PicoContainer.NET
- LinFu
- Hacked DIY (Do It Yourself)
- There are many examples of quicky IOC Containers. Interesting for learning but little else.
What projects have I forgotten? Thanks!
