Ninject.MVC3 Bootstrapper's Kernel property is marked as Obsolete. How can I get access to the kernel?

Question

I updated Ninject.MVC3 package from 2.2.1.0 to 2.2.2.0. Before I had access to the Kernel object through BootStrapper.Kernel property but in the new version Kernel property

Answer 1

You could use the Common Service Locator as a service location hook into Ninject. The Common Service Locator only allows you to retrieve objects though, not inject objects that you already have. Of course you could hack around this restriction, but you could just as easily create a static class that exposes the Ninject kernel and reference that rather than the BootStrapper.
