Protected Friend Sub AddDependencyResolver (resolver As IDbDependencyResolver)

Parameters

resolver

IDbDependencyResolver

The resolver to add.

Remarks

Resolvers are asked to resolve dependencies in reverse order from which they are added. This means that a resolver can be added to override resolution of a dependency that would already have been resolved in a different way. The exceptions to this is that any dependency registered in the application's config file will always be used in preference to using a dependency resolver added here.
