    copied!<p>I'm using Ninject.Web.WebApi-RC in an MVC 4 Website.</p> <p>In my NinjectWebCommon.cs file I have:</p> <pre><code>kernel.Bind&lt;IA&gt;().To&lt;A&gt;(); kernel.Bind&lt;byte[]&gt;().ToConstant(new byte[1]).WhenTargetHas&lt;AKeyAttribute&gt;(); </code></pre> <p>In my WebApi controller I'm requesting an <code>IKernel</code> in the constructor (just trying to troubleshoot). I'm calling <code>Get&lt;IA&gt;()</code> in my controller constructor. The constructor for <code>A</code> looks like:</p> <pre><code>public A([AKey] byte[] key) </code></pre> <p>where <code>AKeyAttribute</code> is a class that extends <code>Attribute</code>. My issue is that when the code gets inside of the constructor for <code>A</code> its argument is a <code>byte</code> of length 0, not 1.</p> <p>Any ideas? Thanks!</p> <p><strong>EDIT</strong></p> <p>This is incredibly weird. I've changed the constructor of <code>A</code> to:</p> <pre><code>public A([AKey] string test) </code></pre> <p>And my NinjectWebCommon.cs file to:</p> <pre><code>kernel.Bind&lt;string&gt;().ToConstant("Test").WhenTargetHas&lt;AKeyAttribute&gt;(); </code></pre> <p>And then <code>"Test"</code> is indeed being injected into the controller. However when I do:</p> <pre><code>public A([AKey] string[] test) kernel.Bind&lt;string[]&gt;().ToConstant(new string[] { "Test" }).WhenTargetHas&lt;AKeyAttribute&gt;(); </code></pre> <p>That doesn't work.</p> <p>I'm guessing when you do an array of something in a class' constructor it's expecting multi-injection? Is there a way to override this?</p>
