You did what to your IOC?
If you are unsure what an IOC container is or why you would use one you may want to skip this post. If you don’t know what it is but have heard the term and wish to learn more, well this still isn’t the post for you. This post is covering StructureMap, a popular IOC container and how to use it. This post is not an introduction to dependency injection.
As the result of a rather insulting discussion with an anti-VB coworker I challenge myself to jump the fence from VB to C# land. I wanted to experience first hand what all the fuss was about. So I dove head-first into building my first C# project. That was nearly four months ago.
My new company is your typical enterprise business. They had an in-house application created with Microsoft Access. As the company grew the Access app couldn’t keep up and the need to rewrite the software became obvious. After some false starts in Access they finally settled on VB.NET as the new language of choice. All this occurred a few years prior to my arrival.
