Hi Jesper.

Yeah we found a solution.

We are writing our own implementation of IRegister and IFactory and decorate our factory with the default Umbraco 8 factory. And then we are setting the container in the factory.

Hi Malthe Petersen,

I am using Umbraco 8. I need to implement DI, can you please share me the code.

Hi Skp.

Sorry for late answer.

For the Factory we did something like:

public class SimpleInjectorUmbracoFactory : IFactory
    {
        private Container _container;
        private readonly IFactory _umbracoDefaultFactory;
        private IEnumerable<Assembly> _mvcControllerAssemblies;
        private IEnumerable<Assembly> _apiControllerAssemblies;

        private SimpleInjectorUmbracoFactory(IFactory umbracoDefaultFactory)
        {
            _umbracoDefaultFactory = umbracoDefaultFactory;
        }

        public static SimpleInjectorUmbracoFactory Current { get; private set; }
        public static SimpleInjectorUmbracoFactory Create(IFactory umbracoDefaultFactory)
        {
            return Current ?? (Current = new SimpleInjectorUmbracoFactory(umbracoDefaultFactory));
        }
...
...
}

And the Registry looks something like this:

public class SimpleInjectorUmbracoRegistry : IRegister
    {
        private readonly LightInjectContainer _lightInjectContainer;

        public SimpleInjectorUmbracoRegistry()
        {
            _lightInjectContainer = LightInjectContainer.Create();
        }

        public static IRegister Create()
            => new SimpleInjectorUmbracoRegistry();
...
...
}

It is a bit complext sadly and I can't show you everything due to copyright, but it is possible to use two different DI frameworks at once. :-) And the IRegister and IFactory is the way in.
