Quick Start

The Autofac/MEF integration allows MEF catalogs to be registered with the ContainerBuilder using the RegisterComposablePartCatalog() extension method. If you register a component using MEF and want to provide Autofac components into that MEF component, use the Exported() extension.

var builder = new ContainerBuilder();
var catalog = new DirectoryCatalog(@"C:\MyExtensions");
builder.RegisterComposablePartCatalog(catalog);
builder.RegisterType<Component>()
       .Exported(x => x.As<IService>().WithMetadata("SomeData", 42));

Check out the Autofac MEF integration documentation for more information.
