Using Swinject to inject a Model class instance into a View class instance in Swift

In a Swift 2.0, Single Page Application project, in XCode 7.0.1, with the Swift dependency injection framework Swinject, I am doing the following:

DuplicateProtocol.swift:

protocol DuplicateProtocol { var id: String { get } }

SingletonProtocol.swift:

protocol SingletonProtocol { var id: String { get } }

DuplicateProxy.swift

class DuplicateProxy: DuplicateProtocol {
    let id: String

    init ( id: String ) {
        self.id = "DuplicateProxy." + id
    }
}

SingletonProxy.swift:

class SingletonProxy: SingletonProtocol {
    let id: String

    init ( id: String ) {
        self.id = "SingletonProxy." + id
    }
}

ViewController.swift:

import UIKit

class ViewController: UIViewController
{
    var duplicate: DuplicateProtocol?
    var singleton: SingletonProtocol?

    required init? ( coder aDecoder: NSCoder ) {
        print( "ViewController.init?", duplicate, singleton )
        super.init( coder: aDecoder )
    }

    override func viewDidLoad () {
        print( "ViewController.viewDidLoad", duplicate, singleton )
        super.viewDidLoad()
    }
}

AppDelegate.swift:

import Swinject
import UIKit

@UIApplicationMain
class AppDelegate: UIResponder, UIApplicationDelegate
{
    var window: UIWindow?

    func application ( application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [NSObject: AnyObject]? ) -> Bool {

        let container = Container()
        let singleton = SingletonProxy( id: "first" )

        container.register( SingletonProtocol.self ) { _ in singleton }
        container.register( DuplicateProtocol.self ) { _ in DuplicateProxy( id: "second" ) }

        container.registerForStoryboard( ViewController.self ) {
            r, c in c.duplicate = r.resolve( DuplicateProtocol.self )
        }

        print( "AppDelegate.application" )

        return true
    }
}

And this is the console log I am unfortunately getting:

ViewController.init? nil nil
AppDelegate.application
ViewController.viewDidLoad nil nil

Put as simply as I can: what changes do I need to make? Thank you, JBM.
