Is the SS Funq IoC a singleton ? I would like to use it independently from AppHost for our application needs. I did read also this helpful answer of Demis, http://stackoverflow.com/a/14713530/2103764
I should compile it from src, separately, if not use SS in the front-end .What if I use it also in the service-layer but before AppHost and maybe in another long-running thread ?
Funq.Conainer is not a singleton itself, but ServiceStack uses the same instance at AppHost.Container.
Fredrick Lackey:
I wouldn’t get fixated on AppHost… especially if you only need / want bits and pieces. The Funq.Container can be used just like any other class… stored as a private field in your class, in a Global variable. The AppHost just makes it easier to do this in the service layer of your solution. If you’re looking for a singleton pattern somewhere OUTSIDE of the service layer, you could always create your own singleton “engine” or other class which will CONTAIN a normal property of type Funq.Container… http://www.dotnetperls.com/singleton

I know what means singleton . I asked if there is a problem with 2 instances of Funq.Container initialized in the same application.
