I'am using Ninject + Windows Forms to build an application.
Mark Seemann (Injection in .NET book Author) says: Only one call of container.Get<> must construct all object gaph of your application.
I can't think a logical way to do that.
I was searching and wasting a lot of time for one code sample about how to do it, but i can't find.
On my application i have a Menu Form that call many other forms each one with your respective service (e.g ICustomerService).
Someone can help me with a code sample of a Windows Forms application with 3 or more forms each one calling another with Ninject?

I know the question is about solving the problem probably by different approach but let me specify in details what I want to ask and how much I understand about it.
We have two mvc approach used in ATG(or many other framework) pull based and push based.
As I understand it formhandlers and droplet both are playing the part of controller in different need, repositories are our model and jsps are providing views..
And if i am right till this point then what purpose the servlet chain is solving?How it fits into this picture of MVC?
Please If possible explain with the help of flow diagram from request to response (end to end).
Thanks a lot in advance to experts.
Please help.I could not find this kind of explanation anywhere.
The first thing to remember with ATG is that it is an old platform. So when trying to understand the different mechanisms through an MVC lens, remember that nothing was designed with MVC in mind-the platform predates widespread knowledge and acceptance of the MVC pattern in web development.
Droplets are a generalized mechanism for invoking Java code from a JSP (and previously, JHTML) template. The closest analogue in J2EE-land would be tag libraries. So you can use them to accomplish many different tasks. You can also use them as a poor man's MVC controller. This is done by coding a custom droplet class dedicated to handling the business logic of your page, and setting relevant page state as request parameters. Then you invoke the droplet as the first step in your JSP page. This is not very different from J2EE model 2 with the odd quirk that first your compiled JSP begins executing, then invokes your "controller" code and then resumes with processing the "view."
Form handlers, as the name indicates, are designed for processing form submissions. These are executed by a link in the servlet pipeline (DAFDropletEventServlet), before the page which was posted to begins rendering. Typical usage with form handlers is that they will send a redirect after executing, and cancel rendering of the page, which will abort any further processing by the servlet pipeline. Form handlers are the closest thing to a "controller" ATG provides. But they are awful for handling GET requests and result in some very unfortunate URLs when used for this purpose.
Why did they create two different mechanisms? Why have they not subsequently introduced an updated MVC model as part of the platform? These questions I cannot answer.
ATG, at the page rendering level, is not MVC. Don't look at it as MVC. ATG, at its core, is an extension of the basic Servlets API.
Forms and form-processing, with the successUrl and errorUrl is kind-of MVC. Droplets certainly are not.
It is perfectly acceptable in an ATG application to be fetching data as the page is rendering (i.e. Droplets)
How can I manipulate other modules without editing them ? very the same thing that wordpress modules do .
They add functionality to core system without changing the core code and they work together like a charm.
I always wanted to know how to implement this in my own modular application
A long time ago I wrote the blog post "Use 3rd party modules in Zend Framework 2" specifically about extending Zend Framework 2 modules. The answer from Bez is technically correct, it could be a bit more specific about the framework.
Read the full post at https://juriansluiman.nl/article/117/use-3rd-party-modules-in-zend-framework-2, but it gives you a clue about:
Changing a route from a module (say, you want to have the url /account/login instead of /user/login)
Overriding a view script, so you can completely modify the page's rendering
Changing a form object, so you could add new form fields or mark some required field as not required anymore.
This is a long topic, but here is a short gist.
Extensibility in Zend Framework 2 heavily relies on the premise that components can be interchanged, added, and/or substituted.
Read up on SOLID principles: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SOLID_(object-oriented_design)
Modules typically consists of objects working together as a well-oiled machinery, designed to accomplish one thing or a bunch of related things, whatever that may be. These objects are called services, and managed by the service locator/service manager.
A big part of making your module truly extensible is to expect your developers to extend a class or implement a certain interface, which the developer register as services. You should provide a mode of definition wherein the developers can specify which things he wants to substitute, and/or add their own services to -- and this is where the application configuration comes in.
Given the application configuration, you should construct your machinery a.k.a. module services according to options the developer has specified i.e., use the developer defined Foo\Bar\UserService service as the YourModule\UserServiceInterface within your module, etc. (This is usually delegated to service factories, which has the opportunity to read the application configuration, and constructs the appropriate object given a particular set of configuration values.)
EDIT:
To add, a lot can be accomplished by leveraging Zend's Zend\EventManager component. This allows you to give developers the freedom to hook and listen to certain operations of your module and act accordingly (See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Observer_pattern)
I am user of Selenium RC with java for a quite long time. But till date I am not able to find the best framework for Selenium RC scripts. I would like to know the following details,
a) What are the different frameworks available for Selenium RC?
b) Which is the best one for Selenium RC with Java?
Help me with your answer, please also provide the supporting URL so that I can have some basic idea about the frameworks and chose the best one for my project.
Thanks in advance
We have been using OpKey, a framework on selenium build by CresTech. What we liked about it was out of box Object map and data map implementation..For us script maintenance was a issue we were struggling with.I would recommend OpKey
We use TestNG. In addition to providing a JUnit-type organization for system tests, it supports data driving and has scope for Continuous Integration.

Keyword Driven Framework - Keyword-based test design and test automation is formed on the idea that the discrete functional business events that make up any application can be described using short text description (keywords). In this framework testers to develop test cases using Microsoft Excel using a list of keywords. When the test is executed, the framework
processes the Excel workbook and calls functions as sociated with the
keywords entered in the Excel spreadsheet. These keyword functions in
turn perform specific actions against the application under test
(AUT).

I am going to create a basic "CRUD" application that will "live" inside Sharepoint 2010. The data will be hosted on a SQL 2008 R2 Server.
Basically, there will be a few "Add" forms, some Queries and some Reporting (SSRS).
Honestly, the application doesn't really even need Sharepoint, but we are trying to get as many of these applications hosted inside Sharepoint as possible. (The application is currently a Microsoft Access application.)
I have experience creating these types of applications (ASP .Net) and have recently been using the Entity Framework. Generally, I design my Data Layer in a seperate Visual Studio Project (using EF) and then extendthe partial classes it creates and/or sometimes create another POCO layer to access the data (depending on how much "business logic" there is).
Anyway, the question I have is:
If I create a (Visual Studio) Solution (I know I have to target .Net 3.5, since because SP doesn't support 4.0 yet), can I use my usual "layered" design and create a seperate project (assembly) that conaints all of my Data Access (Entity Framework) and then have a seperate Project that contains all of the Visual Web Parts (that we design the Data Entry Forms in)? Will this work? Will I be able to call the exposed methods from the (EF) DAL from within the Visual Web Parts (after I deploy my solution to the SP Server)? Will I have to do anything "special" or will both projects get packaged up into a (what is it) "wsp" file and get deployed to SP? (Or, will I have to manually get my DAL Assembly added to the GAC, etc.)
Any examples or tutorials would be a big help to me too.
Also, if you think I am going about this all wrong, I am also interested in knowing how you would create a similar appliation. Is there a better way to do this? (I know I could create a BDC Model and access our SQL data via a Sharepoint List using the External Content Type. Although, for some reason it just seems like that isn't the "right path" for this particular application... I can't put my finger on it, but I am leaning toward just creating a "traditional" ASP .Net app that just uses SharePoint as its "hosting web server".)
Thanks!

Can you do it: yes. Should you do it: probably not.
You hit it on the head. You are creating and ASP.NET application, not a SharePoint application.
Anyway, assuming you are going to have to proceed in this manner, here's my advice.
Build the presentation layer (web parts, application pages) using the SharePoint project template and SharePoint project items. This project can reference the assemblies that implement the remaining layers of your application. Visual Studio will then prepare a Solution Package (WSP) that can be used in testing and deployed to production servers.
You should do everything you can to make your application "fit" into SharePoint. It should use the same UI metaphors, respect branding, and so on. Nothing is more jarring to a user then to have pages and web parts that look and behave total different to SharePoint in the middle of a SharePoint site.
If you have the full version of sharepoint you can use Access Services, which will convert your Access application to a web app, just run the wizard

I made an app in VB that I want to turn into a web service. I've been told I can create a web service from VB.NET but how? Can I convert my app into a ASP.NET app or do I have to re-write it? Can I turn my app into an Active X control and create a active x web service?
It's probably good to first try to understand exactly what you want and why you need it. A web service has little to do with ActiveX or ASP.NET technologies. It is a way to call methods of your libraries using SOAP or REST (or similar) requests. Once you know what for you need it, you can decide how to set it up.
You can use all the code you currently have but only if it was designed to be used with a library in mind. That means: no interactive forms, messageboxes etc. There are other restrictions, but let's not get ahead of ourselves too much.
To get from A to B, change your code such that it compiles as a DLL lib that you can use and call from other applications. From there to a web service is then only a small step away.
