J4JSoftware.DependencyInjection

The J4JHostConfiguration API allows you to create objects implementing the IJ4JHost interface. That interface extends Microsoft's IHost interface to include:

• the app publisher's name;
• the application name;
• the path to where user configuration files are stored (and the paths to individual user configuration files);
• the path to where application configuration files are storedf (and the paths to individual application configuration files);
• a flag indicating whether or not the operating system the code is running on has a case sensitive filesystem;
• various items related to how the command line is parsed:
  • the StringComparison object used to compare text entered on the command line to programmatic values;
  • (optional) the text tokens that serve as lexical elements (e.g., the key prefix, the character(s) used to demarcate strings, etc.) on the command line;
  • the options defined for command line processing;
• the operating system the code is running on; and,
• the environment in which the code is running (e.g., console, WPF, WPF in design mode, etc.)

The IJ4JHost instance provides a number of useful services:

• (optional) logging (via J4JLogger)
• simple data protection (i.e., encryption and decryption of strings, via Microsoft.AspNetCore.DataProtection)
• (optional) command line parsing (via J4JCommandLine)
• dependency injection (via Autofac)

This assembly targets Net 7 and has nullability enabled.

The repository is available online at github.
