I think no, because I ask a question one year ago, and they still not answered

@aqibbanday @NoskovEugene Are you using it in the old code base or with the new MS.DI abstractions?

[aqibbanday]

I am using it with .NET 5.

@aqibbanday Sorry for the survey:

• Are you using Ninject for the specific feature(features)?
• How big is the usage scope, e.g. 100 registrations or 1000 or more?

[aqibbanday]

Less than 50.

[aqibbanday]

I am using ninject for DI and no other library.

[dadhi]

Thank you.

I am using ninject for DI and no other library.

I mean, what is the specific Ninject feature(s) you love and which is keeping you on Ninject wagon,
comparing to the Microsoft.DependencyInjection or others?

Or are you using Ninject for the other reasons?

[aqibbanday]

Nothing is keeping me on Ninject,if this library is not maintained I am planning to move to some other library probably Microsoft dependency injection

[NoskovEugene]

@dadhi, i love ninject because it can dynamic resolve dependencies

@NoskovEugene

love ninject because it can dynamic resolve dependencies

What is that? Could you provide the example?

I have recently spot one NInject feature allowing setup custom NLog Logger (with the correct name parameter) resolution
( https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13748455/ninject-logger-using-nlog/65797518#65797518 )

_kernel.Bind().ToMethod(p => LogManager.GetLogger(p.Request.Target?.Member.DeclaringType.FullName ?? typeof(App).GetType().FullName))
As I understand, In detail, It allows to get the to the service type via the "p.Request.Target?.Member.DeclaringType path". This allows me to register services without need of explicit expression of arguments (because in case of a custom NLog logger is good to manually specify the way how to instantiate the logger based on the service type name.) Microsoft DI container does not have such a functionality and I haven't found a way if possible to extend it (if so please let me know :) )
