Build a solid foundation in software architecture applying Dependency Injection with IoC-Containers

In many of my courses I use techniques of Dependency Injection and each time students write me private messages saying that they don’t what it is and thus they don’t understand what’s going on in the course I teach. This is very unfortunate from the learning perspectives.

Dependency Injection is the set of techniques that allow to supply dependencies to objects. Actually, if you have ever passed dependencies via constructors, then you applied the so-called constructor injection. Dependency Injection (DI) is simple and difficult at the same time. On one hand, DI is comprised of simple techniques and on the other hand, when we need to bring DI to the next level, we need to make things more complicated using the so-called DI or IoC (Inversion of Control) Containers. These are the frameworks which perform dependency injection automatically. You just need to set one up in the application root (an extremely important notion which you’ll learn about in the course) and after that, it will resolve all the dependencies it knows about in the runtime.

If you still don’t understand what am I talking about, just believe me, you absolutely need to know about Dependency Injection. This course will tremendously improve your understanding of how software architectures emerge. So, this course is “must watch” for anyone who still doesn’t understand what is DI and IoC-Containers.

Content and Overview

This course is aimed at all kind of developers. It provides solid theoretical base reinforced by practical material.

Dependencies and their types, Pure DI and IoC-Containers, Service Locator

The Architectural Implications of Dependency Injection

DI-related Anti-Patterns & Refactorings: 
Control Freak, Hidden Dependencies, Temporal Coupling,
Constructor Over-Injection and how to avoid it,
Ambient Context, Facade Service, Property Injection vs Bastard Injection, Cyclic Dependencies

RefactoringExample of an existing code base applying Dependency Injection

How to reap the fruits of DI

DI-Containers (IoC-Containers):
Overview, Unity, Late Binding with Unity, Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP), Interception vs Pure DI vs AOP Tools,

Setting up a bootstrapper with Unity, Autofac and Castle.Windsor

Introduction to Unit Testing

Teaching Approach

No fluff, no ranting, no beating the air. I respect your time. The course material is succinct, yet comprehensive. All the important concepts are covered. Particularly important topics are covered in-depth.

Take this course, and you will be satisfied.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I have access to the course materials?

You can view and review the lecture materials indefinitely, like an on-demand channel.

Can I take my courses with me wherever I go?

Definitely! If you have an internet connection, courses on Udemy are available on any device at any time. If you don’t have an internet connection, some instructors also let their students download course lectures. That’s up to the instructor though, so make sure you get on their good side!
