Get typeof(...).Name using Spring.NET

Question

Is there a way to get the string representation of an interface using Spring.NET?

In code:

typeof(ISsoUrlTemplateRepository).Name

I would need this name in Spring.NET configuration... I could just take the string itself but if I would ever refactor and change the names of some interfaces, the Spring configuration wouldn't work anymore.

This relates to another question I've asked --> Configure static properties with spring.NET

I don't see what "to get the string representation of an interface" has to do with Spring.NET. — Andre Pena, Jan 10 '10 at 20:08

To get a typename in your Spring.NET config you need to use Spring Expression language.

Like so:

<object id="MyClass" type="Assembly.Type, Assembly">
    <property name ="MyTypeProperty" value="T(AnotherAssembly.AnotherType, AnotherAssembly)"/>        
 </object>

By using

typeof(ISsoUrlTemplateRepository).AssemblyQualifiedName

Which includes full type name, plus assembly name from which that was loaded.
