MVC Interview Question
Question 1: Is it possible to use parameterised constructor in MVC controller? If Yes then how ? Ans: Yes we can use parameterized constructor in MVC. It is the responsibility of "ControllerFactory" class to initialized controller instance. In order to use parameterised constructor we must derive "ControllerFactory" as below public class CustomControllerFactory : DefaultControllerFactory { protected override IController GetControllerInstance(RequestContext requestContext, Type controllerType) { ILogger logger = new DefaultLogger(); IController controller = Activator.CreateInstance(controllerType, new[] { logger }) as Controller; return controller; } } In above code DefaultControllerFactory is derived and GetControllerInstance is overridden to instantiate controller with "logger" parameter. Another way and best way is to use dependency injection .
