RC2, issue with HttpApplicationInitializationHttpModule Injection

[jpknoll]

If my webservice global inherits from NinjectHttpApplication, then the application fails with the following error:

Error activating IntPtr
No matching bindings are available, and the type is not self-bindable.
Activation path:
3) Injection of dependency IntPtr into parameter method of constructor of type Func{IKernel}
2) Injection of dependency Func{IKernel} into parameter lazyKernel of constructor of type HttpApplicationInitializationHttpModule

1. Request for IHttpModule

The following code resolved this error:

public class Global : NinjectHttpApplication
{
    protected override void OnApplicationStarted()
    {
        base.OnApplicationStarted();
    }

    protected override IKernel CreateKernel()
    {
        //define modules loaded by default
        var modules = new INinjectModule[]
        {
            new ServiceModule(),
            new EntityContextModule(),
        };

        IKernel kernel = new StandardKernel(modules);

        //hack for Ninject.Web.Common.HttpApplicationInitializationHttpModule
        kernel.Bind<Func<IKernel>>().ToMethod(c => () => GetKernelInstance());

        return kernel;
    }

    private IKernel GetKernelInstance()
    {
        //this method is deprecated
        return this.Kernel;
    }
}

Is this intended?

[jpknoll]

Nevermind, found the nuget generated file in the app_start. Would it be possible to get an example in the wiki?

[remogloor]

HttpApplicationInitializationHttpModule is not intended to be used together with NinjectHttpApplication. It's for the AppStart way only.

Yeah, I'd completely missed the nuget generated file and didn't realized I was using both. Thanks.
