The Code Junkie: An introduction to MEF programming models

Back in late November 2008, when MEF Preview 3 shipped, I started looking into what the Managed Extensibility Framework was and what it had to offer. After having spent a couple of weeks exploring the shipped features of the framework, I soon started looking for ways that I could extend it with custom functionality.

One of the ideas I had was to write a custom catalog and instead of extracting part information from the types in an assembly, I wanted to use the configuration file to define parts. This would get rid of static part definitions using the Import/Export attributes and instead introduce a way of modifying the composition of an application even after it had been built and shipped.
