I'm using Prism with a Windsor bootstrapper (based on the code
here<https://github.com/bszafko/PrismContrib.WindsorExtensions>).
One of the virtual methods - ConfigureServiceLocator() - provides a place
to specify the IoC container that will be used by the MS service locator
(for things like Prism navigation). With this in place I can use the MS
service locator like so:-
var o = ServiceLocator.Current.GetInstance<IFoo>();
I realise this is an anti-pattern - 99% of the time I'm using DI (via
constructors), but there are a handful of places where I'm having to use a
service locator.
What I want to know is, if I get an instance of a transient type using the
MS service locator, am I responsible for releasing it, and if so, how? The
service locator doesn't provide such a method (I guess I would have to
inject an instance of the Windsor container into the class where I need to
do the release).
Also, as Prism navigation is (presumably) using the MS service locator
under the covers to instantiate views/view models, am I responsible for
releasing these too? I've not found any "hooks" in Prism navigation that
would be a suitable place to do such a thing.
