AI agents: use the documentation index at llms.txt to locate machine-readable pages. This section is indexed by https://docs.particular.net/nservicebus/llms.txt. The markdown version of this page is served as plain text. An MCP server at /mcp serves the same content via the search_docs and read_doc tools; it is read-only and needs no credentials. Markdown versions of documentation pages are available by appending .md to the page URL. Directory URLs use index.md. They are served as text/plain because some retrieval backends reject text/markdown.

Castle Windsor

NuGet Package:
NServiceBus.CastleWindsor 7.x
Target Version:
NServiceBus 7.x
Standard support for version 7.x of NServiceBus has expired. For more information see our Support Policy.

NServiceBus can be configured to use Castle Windsor for dependency injection.

Default usage

endpointConfiguration.UseContainer<WindsorBuilder>();

Using an existing container

var container = new WindsorContainer();
var registration = Component.For<MyService>()
    .Instance(new MyService());
container.Register(registration);
endpointConfiguration.UseContainer<WindsorBuilder>(
    customizations: customizations =>
    {
        customizations.ExistingContainer(container);
    });

DependencyLifecycle Mapping

DependencyLifecycle maps to Castle's LifestyleType as follows:

DependencyLifecycleLifestyleType
InstancePerCallTransient
InstancePerUnitOfWorkScoped
SingleInstanceSingleton

Property Injection

This dependency injection container adapter automatically enables property injection for known types. Use the Func overload of .ConfigureComponent to get full control over the injected properties if needed.
