Aspect instance management
Aspect instance management – is how and where aspect instances are managed? There are two options: aspects instances are created internally by SNAP or aspects are managed by your favorite DI/IoC container.
Consider the following SNAP configuration.
var builder = new ContainerBuilder(); SnapConfiguration.For(new AutofacAspectContainer(builder)).Configure(c => { c.IncludeNamespace("SnapTests.*"); c.Bind<FirstInterceptor>().To<FirstAttribute>(); c.Bind<SecondInterceptor>().To<SecondAttribute>(); });
This way, SNAP will create a single instance for FirstInterceptor
and SecondInterceptor
interceptor classes and use it for all interceptions of methods decorated with FirstAttribute
and SecondAttribute
respectively. In other words, aspect is a singleton, created internally by a SNAP.
Another, more attractive option, is to let your favorite DI/IoC container manage your aspects.
var builder = new ContainerBuilder(); SnapConfiguration.For(new AutofacAspectContainer(builder)).Configure(c => { c.IncludeNamespace("SnapTests.*"); c.Bind<FirstInterceptor>().To<FirstAttribute>(); c.Bind<SecondInterceptor>().To<SecondAttribute>(); c.AllAspects().KeepInContainer(); }); builder.Register(r => new FirstInterceptor("first_kept_in_container")); builder.Register(r => new SecondInterceptor("second_kept_in_container"));
This way, whenever SNAP needs an aspect for the interception, it will use DI/IoC container to resolve the aspect instance.
In this scenario, only a subset of all aspects are kept in container, while other are not.
var builder = new ContainerBuilder(); SnapConfiguration.For(new AutofacAspectContainer(builder)).Configure(c => { c.IncludeNamespace("SnapTests.*"); c.Bind<FirstInterceptor>().To<FirstAttribute>(); c.Bind<SecondInterceptor>().To<SecondAttribute>(); c.Aspects(typeof(FirstInterceptor)).KeepInContainer(); }); builder.Register(r => new FirstInterceptor("first_kept_in_container"));
Here, SNAP will call container to resolve FirstInterceptor
aspect, and will create instance of SecondInterceptor
aspect on its own.
That is it
See this blog post with an example of logging aspect implementation and detailed explanation of why is it better to keep aspects in a container rather than letting SNAP to manage them.
