Autofac - resolving runtime parameters without having to pass container around

Question

I have a simpler \"ServiceHelper\" class that takes two parameters in the constructor:

public ServiceHelper(ILogger log, string serviceN         


        

Answer 1

Resolve should occur for root composition objects only. Calling resolve is near to the same as "newing" up an object, which is a smell test. There are times when the resolution is dynamic and can only be determined on-the-fly, but most dependencies are deterministic and can be registered up front. How to do this with Autofac is the challenge. The awarded answer by @Christian Specht is a good answer, but it assumes everything is determined at runtime.
