CAB: Get service instance without having a reference to WorkItem

Question

Is it possible to get an instance of a service without having a WorkItem context? I have a some classes that need to access some services, and i'm wondering if it's possible to get those services without explicitly injecting those services in the class.

Answer 1

As all the services are registered in WorkItem or rootWorkItem context its not possible according to the design rules of CAB/SCSF.

Please elaborate why you cannot register the service in WorkItem and get it from there. CAB/SCSF has proposed the best practices to manage an enterprise application, its upto us how much we benefit from it.

But if its really necessary you can have a static class (which can act as service implemented in singleton way) in Infrastructure.Library and refer this assembly in your Business or Functional module to get it.

Its a bad hack but technically doable.
