Possible means of using Autofac with MassTransit

afmt.cs

public static void main(string[] args)
{
    var builder = new ContainerBuilder();

    // register each consumer manually
    builder.RegisterType<YourConsumer>().As<IConsumer>();

    //or use Autofac's scanning capabilities -- SomeClass is any class in the correct assembly
    builder.RegisterAssemblyTypes(typeof(SomeClass).Assembly).As<IConsumer>();

    //now we add the bus
    builder.Register(c => ServiceBusFactory.New(sbc =>
    {
        //other configuration options

        //this will find all of the consumers in the container and
        //register them with the bus.
        sbc.LoadFrom(c);
    })).As<IServiceBus>()
       .SingleInstance();

    var container = builder.Build();
}

// Note: We recommend that most of this code be placed in an Autofac Module 
//       ( http://code.google.com/p/autofac/wiki/StructuringWithModules )

what all is line 9 doing?

"Find every type in the assembly which contains SomeClass that happens to support the IConsumer interface and register it with the container such that when we are later ask for IConsumer implementations, we'll get those types."

The thing which is confusing, at first glance, is typeof(SomeClass).Assembly. Autofac doesn't have .FromThisAssembly() like Windsor (as far as I know), so you just need an assembly reference for the relevant assembly. Pick any class in that assembly, and use the Type.Assembly property to get that reference.

One could also use Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly.

Ok, that's what I want. Thanks. Its now in the docs. :)

Yeah, but that's less explicit for most users. Keep it concrete, keep it clear. ;)
