Simone I have a question: I'm using some ideas from your article and posted a question I had in the Castle forum: http://forum.castleproject.org/viewtopic.php?t=3433 I haven't recieved a response but was wondering if you have come across this before? Basically I'm using the Hashtable to pass in certain parameters, but not all the parameters. It's appears if I only pass some and try to let the config handle the others that it fails. Does passing in the hashtable override then the use of the config ? Thanks - great articles!!!

I didn't incur in this issue before, but as for Windsor docs (http://castleproject.org/container/documentation/trunk/advanced/dependenciesadv.html) dependencies supplied inline have precedence over the ones registered in the configuration file.

As far as I can see this is a all-or-none mechanism, say, one option excludes the others, so you can't get some dependencies from one place and some others from another place. This is definitely something which could be improved, I suggest you to fill a Jira issue here: http://support.castleproject.org/
