AsPerRequestSingleton() registration using Factory method with TinyIOC Container

Question

I'm looking into TinyIOC for ASP.NET MVC application.

What I'm trying to do is register some interface as singleton per request using factory method.

var container = TinyIoC.TinyIoCContainer.Current;
container.Register<IGlobal>((c, n) => FactoryMethod()).AsPerRequestSingleton();

The code above gives me Cannot convert current registration of TinyIoC.TinyIoCContainer+DelegateFactory to singleton. Is there a way to implement this with TinyIOC without using ChildContainers?

Probably not. Not being able to use factory methods for singleton lifestyles is one of the shortcomings of TinyIoC. — TeaDrivenDev, Nov 25 '13 at 17:31
That's a pity. Btw, could you please post this as an answer, so I could accept? — Shaddix, Nov 26 '13 at 05:00

Sorry, forgot that....

So, TinyIoC currently (as of 1.2) can't register for singleton lifestyles when using factory methods.

Oh, and as you mention child containers - be careful with those, they're broken as well.

A link to the issue? – Deilan Oct 28 '16 at 14:40
I don't know if one exists. I never bothered to file TinyIoC issues, because at the time, the project appeared all but dead, and issues and pull requests were piling up without even a response. – TeaDrivenDev Oct 28 '16 at 15:45
