WCF service dependency injection code example

Example: WCF service dependency injection

// You'll need to implement a combination of custom ServiceHostFactory, ServiceHost and IInstanceProvider.
// Given a service with this constructor signature:
//public MyService(IDependency dep)

// Register MyServiceHostFactory in your MyService.svc file, or use MyServiceHost directly in code for self-hosting scenarios.

public class MyServiceHostFactory : ServiceHostFactory
{
    private readonly IDependency dep;

    public MyServiceHostFactory()
    {
        this.dep = new MyClass();
    }

    protected override ServiceHost CreateServiceHost(Type serviceType,
        Uri[] baseAddresses)
    {
        return new MyServiceHost(this.dep, serviceType, baseAddresses);
    }
}

public class MyServiceHost : ServiceHost
{
