AutoEventWireup and Injection

[khorvat]

I have a question and maybe a potential bug to report, in case developer turns on the AutoEventWireup on System.Web.UI.Page or System.Web.UI.UserControl and uses let's say Init event e.g. "protected void Page_Init(object sender, EventArgs e)" at this point nothing is injected into properties etc.

The root of this problem is the call to RequestActivation(); in PageBase and UserControlBase which is called after base.OnInit(e); and all events are raised inside the base.OnInit.

Thoughts ?

Can't reproduce. I can access dependencies in Page_Init

I think the issue here is that you need to use WebActivator to hookup the NinjectHttpModule via DynamicModuleUtility.RegisterModule(typeof(NinjectHttpModule)); and then this is working, but I have a situation where I can't add WebActivator to a project because it will break project's backward compatibility. So my question is, how can I hookup the NinjectHttpModule without the WebActivator ?

Note: I have tried adding modules to the web.config but had no luck.

Thanks
