• Fluent interface - for faster and easier configuration, attribute based configuration is supported also.
• Interface/type mapping - single service, instance registration, remapping of existing registrations.
• Resolution via delegates - dynamic dependency overrides with delegate parameters.
• Keyed registrations - multiple implementations identified with a key for the same service type.
• Assembly registration - service lookup in assemblies with auto determined service types.
• Factory registration - factory delegates with several parameters can be registered.
• Initializer / finalizer - custom initializer and finalizer actions can be set.
• Multiple service resolution - all implementation registered for an interface can be obtained.
• Unknown type resolution - unregistered services can be resolved or injected.
• Default and optional value injection - primitive types or dependencies with default or optional value can be resolved.
• Open generic type resolution - concrete generic types can be resolved from open generic definitions with constraint and nested generic definition checking.
• Constructor, property and field injection - attribute driven resolution or automatic injection, when there is no chance to decorate members with attributes.
• Injection method - methods decorated with InjectionMethod attribute are called at resolution time.
• Wiring into container - member injection can be executed on existing instances.
• Building up existing instance - member injection can be executed on existing instances without wiring them into the container.
• Child container - parent/child container support.
• Lifetime scopes - hierarchical/named scoping support.
• Lifetime management - including Singleton, Transient, Scoped, NamedScope and PerResolutionRequest lifetime, custom user-defined lifetimes also can be used.
• Conditional resolution - attribute, parent-type and custom user defined conditions can be specified.
• IDisposable object tracking - IDisposable objects are being disposed by the container.
• Cleanup delegates - custom finalizer delegate can be configured to be called when the container or scope which created the service is being disposed.
• Circular dependency tracking - the container checks the resolution graph for circular dependencies, it throws a specific excpetion if it finds any.
• Special types - generic wrappers:
  • Collections: everything assignable to IEnumerable<T> e.g. T[], ICollection<T>, IReadOnlyCollection<T>, IList<T> etc.
  • Lazy<>, Func<>, Tuple<>
  • Parameter injection over delegate arguments e.g. Func<TParam, TService>, Func<TParam1, TParam2, TService>, etc. applied to subdependencies as well.
  • Nested wrappers e.g. Tuple<TService, IEnumerable<Func<TParam, Lazy<TService1>>>>.
• Custom resolvers - the existing activation rutines can be extended with custom resolvers.
• Container extensions - the containers functionality can be extended with custom extensions, e.g. Auto configuration parser extension
• Custom configuration - the behavior of the container can be controlled with custom configurations.
• Container validation - the resolution graph can be validated by calling the Validate() function.
• Decorator support / Interception - decorator services can be registered and used for interception with Castle DynamicProxy
