AutoMapper add Profile on assembly load

Question

I want to register all the Mappings in my Business Layer to Data Layer, and Data Layer to Business Layer classes just as my Business Layer assembly loads. Currently I am using a static class to do this task for me:

public static class AutoMapperBootstrapper
{
    public static void InitMappings()
    {
        Mapper.Initialize(a => a.AddProfile<MyProfile>());
    }
}

But each time I make a call with Mapper.Map and the added mappings in the profile, it is still saying Missing Type Mapping Information.

How I should go about fixing this?

Solution

It seems your Mapper.AddProfile is not calling when the application starts. Try this,

In Global.asax.cs [Application_Start],

protected void Application_Start(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Mapper.AddProfile<MyProfile>();
}

And MyProfile looks like below,

public class MyProfile : Profile
{
    public override string ProfileName
    {
        get { return "Name"; }
    }

    protected override void Configure()
    {
        //// BL to DL
        Mapper.CreateMap<BLCLASS, DLCLASS>();

        ////  and DL to BL
        Mapper.CreateMap<DLCLASS, BLCLASS>();
    }
}
