Can you inject dependencies into a constructor of a custom WebViewPage, using an IOC container?

Question

In MVC 3, I understand you can create custom WebViewPages. Can you inject dependencies, using constructor injection, via an IOC container?

Answer 1

There is an expample for view injection in a blog post by Brad Wilson http://bradwilson.typepad.com/blog/2010/07/service-location-pt3-views.html

The statements of the others that views allow constructor injection not entirely correct. Yes IDependencyResolver enables creating views that have constructor arguments. But unless you are implementing your own view engine this won't help you at all. Existing view engines like razor will require that you have a parameterless constructor. This means you can do only property injection on views with them.

But as the others said you shouldn't do view injection anyway. Your view should be dumb and just render the view model to HTML. Anything requiring a dependency should be done in the controller or a service.
