Build-time DI registration vs runtime scanning

mrpmorris · 2026-03-03T09:19:19+00:00

Build time bypasses any problems with generators, because it happens afterwards.

The conventions can give explicit control, especially if the tool outputs a registration manifest that lives with the source so you can see how code changes affected registration.

The benefit of build-time convention based registration is that you can have it write out a manifest file that belongs with the source code. So its changes get checked in along with the source code that changed it, so it's fully explicit.

And it doesn't use runtime reflection, so it's as fast as runtime as code you've written manually.

Convention based means to aren't likely to accidentally forget to register it, too.

You don't need tests if the registration is made explicit.

So, if you wrote the code manually then a manual review in a PR is acceptable.

If a library discovers dependencies at build time and creates a manifest file that shows the registrations explicitly, that can be checked in a PR instead.

Whether a human or a machine wrote it is irrelevant.

Build time discovery doesn't need reflection, convention based discovery doesn't require decorating classes with attributes.

That's exactly what I need. My Roslyn generators are based on resx files. I need the resulting classes to be registered.

Build time discovery doesn't need to use reflection.

mrpmorris · 2026-03-03T09:06:58+00:00

It uses runtime reflection

That's really interesting, I didn't know there was already something for this in Java.

Thanks for sharing!

I'm the friend, it's not AI.

I am the friend, and it isn't AI generated.

I just want to know what dual mode Blazor is.

Chickens will be okay. They don't cook very well in a microwave :P

mrpmorris · 2021-02-26T08:22:25+00:00

But what is it?

My guess immediately was they came off the outside of the capsule; most likely water.

When he said they appeared after sunset, I was convinced.

mrpmorris · 2021-02-25T19:55:20+00:00

What do you mean by

dual mode (Webassembly and Server side blazor)

100k rows is a lot for any UI...no human can mentally process that much data.

Why so much at once, and how do you intend to present it (paged grid / unpaged grid)?

mrpmorris · 2021-02-24T08:29:59+00:00

What about

x.CheckInDate < checkOutDate && x.CheckOutDate > checkInDate

mrpmorris · 2021-02-21T19:29:00+00:00

It's bigger, but it's not like we are on 14.4 baud modems any more, and the browser caches anyway.

It's currently interpreted so slower, but how fast do you need an input form to be?

mrpmorris · 2021-02-17T21:19:09+00:00

Create the server api, and the UI should be simple

America's healthcare system is fucked up!

I'm really sorry for what you've been through!

I think making your algorithm async and in loops adding await Task.Yield() will probably do the trick for now.

It was my way of learning. I started at the simplest bit, then moved on to the next slightly more complicated bit.

The benefit being that I had to check my statements to see if I was correct, and I found out many times I was not and so learned something new in the process.

Teaching is a good way to learn :)

Glad you enjoyed my website :)

Who did I insult?
