Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection.Abstractions 9.0.11

About

Supports the lower-level abstractions for the dependency injection (DI) software design pattern which is a technique for achieving Inversion of Control (IoC) between classes and their dependencies.

Key Features

  • Interfaces for DI implementations which are provided in other packages including Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection.
  • An implementation of a service collection, which is used to add services to and later retrieve them either directly or through constructor injection.
  • Interfaces, attributes and extensions methods to support various DI concepts including specifying a service's lifetime and supporting keyed services.

How to Use

This package is typically used with an implementation of the DI abstractions, such as Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection.

Main Types

The main types provided by this library are:

  • Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection.ActivatorUtilities
  • Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection.IServiceCollection
  • Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection.ServiceCollection
  • Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection.ServiceCollectionDescriptorExtensions
  • Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection.ServiceDescriptor
  • Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection.IServiceProviderFactory<TContainerBuilder>

Additional Documentation

  • Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection
  • Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting
  • Microsoft.Extensions.Options
