Multiple Implementations of Same Interace - need to inject singletons of each implementation
I have two models that implement the same interface. They are singletons. I have two services, each needing an injection of one of the models. How do I map a singleton of each of the models in an interface-based way?
Ideally, I would like to do something along the lines of:
During context "bootstrap":
injector.mapSingletonOf(IMyClass, MyClassA, "MyClassA");
injector.mapSingletonOf(IMyClass, MyClassB, "MyClassB");
In Service 1:
[Inject(name="MyClassA")] public var myClassA:IMyClass;
In Service 2:
[Inject(name="MyClassB")] public var myClassB:IMyClass;
Is this possible?

Nevermind - the above works famously!

Named injection should be a last ressort measure. They greatly augment the risk of typos.
If the two model implement the same interface, can't you inject a factory instead?

I am only using the model in one command class and one service class. So, the named injection works fine for me. The DI container is a factory. Not sure at this point I need to roll my own factory.

Golden rule: it's up to you to make the call :)
Later on, if you find yourself locked in multiple injection problems again revolving around the same interface, you'll give it a second pass.
Thanks for posting anyway, you made me cross the line from silent lurker to active commenter.

Good decision, Nicolas:)

ok, since i started to feel bad for flippantly dismissing your idea, and since i was not aware that named injections were such an evil NO-NO, and since i pride myself in doing the right thing :), i decided to implement the injected factory. actually, a factory interface, thank ya very much! it is nice. thanks for the idea!
