Fluent NHibernate new style mappings - powerful semantics(ang3lfir3.wordpress.com)

submitted by ang3lfir3(660) 3 years, 2 months ago

Automatic/Convention-based mapping entities with Fluent NHibernate(blog.jagregory.com)

Skinning the Cat with Fluent NHibernate(iamnotmyself.com)

submitted by ang3lfir3(660) 3 years, 9 months ago

As you may have noticed, I have become interested in the concept of Object Relational Mapping and the NHibernate framework. One of the more painful/tedious aspects of using NHibernate is hand writing the xml mapping files. That is why I got excited when I heard that Jeremy Miller was open sourcing his mapping generation libraries. read more...
