Hi Brian,

Yes – the 3.5+ version should be what you need.

Cheers,
Nick

Nick – thanks SO much for all you do with Autofac – it is working very well for us. I just downloaded Autofac-2.2.4.900-NET40 and noticed there doesn’t seme to be a companion AutofacContrib-2.2.4.900-NET40 – there is a AutofacContrib-2.2.4.900-NET35 which says ‘NET3.5+’ on the download page. Is that what I need?

As a DI expert, would you mind commenting on the problem of “pervasive services”? I have been thinking about how to reduce boilerplate in case there are several low-level services used by dozens or hundreds of higher-level services. I put an idea in my blog, http://loyc-etc.blogspot.com/2010/08/pervasive-services-and-di.html

Is there a tutorial for the new version of Autofac? The CodeProject one (Dependency Injection in C# 3.0 with Autofac) seems to have a bunch of examples that no longer work.

I am looking for a lightweight and VERY fast DI framework, because I would like to be able to create large numbers of small objects, or resolve the same object 10000s of times in different places… Ninject 2 claims to be fast, but I found it could only create 36,000 trivial objects per second on my machine, about 3,000 times slower than an ordinary “globalVariable = new TrivialObject()” statement.

I just wanted to send a word of encouragement, since after a somewhat long and ardous test drive of a bunch of IoC frameworks we finally tried Autofac and it is brilliant. I wonder actually why would people use any other. Autofac is exceptionally simple yet powerful. I will certainly recommend it.
