Mike Hadlow and I will present the principles of dependency injection, show how to implement them with Castle Windsor and then talk about some more advanced stuff such as Windsor facilities and
implementing custom functionality with them.

This session is aimed at .NET developers at all levels, it is free but upfront registration is required for capacity planning. We have only about 15 seats left in the room so if you were planning to attend, now is the time to sign up.

Mike Hadlow and I will be doing a free talk on dependency injection with Castle Windsor on October 23rd in London, at Skills Matter. We’ll cover
basics of dependency injection, how to use that pattern with Castle Windsor and then move on to some more advanced themes like extending Windsor with your own facilities, remoting and implementing AOP-style functionality.

The event is free to attend, but up-front registration is required for capacity planning. for more information and to register click here.

We have worked out the schedule for opensource .NET talks at Skills Matter in London for the next few months. Here are the dates to note in your calendar – more detail on sessions will follow:

• 25th September: Script #, .NET response to Google Web Toolkit.
  Registration is now open
• 23rd October: Dependency injection with Castle Windsor
• 27th November: Asynchronous enterprise .NET applications with NServiceBus
• 17th December: Test driven development in .NET

We will probably do another Alt.NET evening in January like the one this July. This time we’ll have more time and hopefully a bigger venue. At the moment, we have a slot on 13th Jan available for this. If you attended the July talks, please let me know what you thought of the way that we organised it, what you liked, what you disliked, and what we could do to make it better next time.

Here’s the video from the talk that Dave and I did last month at Skills Matter on developing Ajax Web applications with Castle Monorail. You can download slides and find links from the talk here. (if the video does not load in the embedded player, see it on google video)

Simplified calls to remote services are among the most useful features of the Java Spring framework. In .NET, I use Castle for the application framework wiring and I was looking for something similar — it turns out that remote proxy calls are incredibly simple with Castle as well. Continue Reading »
