Class with multiple constructors cannot be selected if parameter is not a primitive type

    public class IoC
        {
            public static IContainer Init()
            {
                var container = new Container(x =>
                {
                    x.Scan(s => {
                        s.TheCallingAssembly();
                        s.AssembliesFromApplicationBaseDirectory();
                        s.WithDefaultConventions();                   
                    });
                    x.For<IActivityService>().Singleton();

                    x.ForConcreteType<ClassWithTwoConstructors>()
                        .Configure.SelectConstructor(() => new ClassWithTwoConstructors(new AnotherDependency()))
                        .Ctor<AnotherDependency>("anotherDependency").Is(new AnotherDependency());

                });

                container.WhatDoIHave();
                return container;
            }
        }


 public class AnotherDependency
    {
        public AnotherDependency()
        {
        }
    }

    public class ClassWithTwoConstructors
    {


        public ClassWithTwoConstructors(int age, string name)
        {

        }

        public ClassWithTwoConstructors(AnotherDependency anotherDependency)        
        {

        }
    }

    public class MainService
    {
        public MainService(IStoryService storyService,
                           ClassWithTwoConstructors anotherDependency)
        {

        }
    }

The MainService constructor cannot be instantiated with the AnotherDependency parameter.

@jonswaino I'm looking at this now.

@jonswaino,

It was a bit of an edge case with the constructor selection. My expression visitor was finding the inner constructor in this case. Without waiting for 3.1.5, you can work around it by:

            var container = new Container(x =>
            {
                x.Scan(s =>
                {
                    s.TheCallingAssembly();
                    s.AssembliesFromApplicationBaseDirectory();
                    s.WithDefaultConventions();
                });
                x.For<IActivityService>().Singleton();


                x.ForConcreteType<ClassWithTwoConstructors>()
                    .Configure.SelectConstructor(() => new ClassWithTwoConstructors(new AnotherDependency()))
                    .Ctor<AnotherDependency>().Is(anotherDependency);

                    // You don't need to specify the argument name if there is only 1 for that type
                    //.Ctor<AnotherDependency>("anotherDependency").Is(anotherDependency);

            });

Ok great thanks for this.
