[TYPO3-mvc] How to get to typoscipt ?

[Franz Koch]

Hey,

> I'm experiencing another problem with my DI'd services, precisely my MailService. I'm trying to imiplement Bennys Mail Solution but with DI instead of extending another Class. (http://www.benny-vs-web.de/typo3/extbase-fluid-zum-rendern-von-e-mail-templates-verwenden/)

the issue here is not DI, but the fact that your MailService should be a 
singleton, although it depends on plugin specific settings you don't 
want to set/inject explicitly. At least the FLUID view needs a 
controllerContext in order to create links etc - so you either have to 
pass the controllerContext from your controllers to your "sendMail" 
action or don't make it a singleton then.

I myself also have a mailService working similar to your example here - 
I'm injecting the controllerContext manually after instantiation of the 
service and then trigger the send process 
($this->notificationService->setControllerContext($this->buildControllerContext())).
