TheVirtual ALT.NET Google group hosted a LiveMeeting event with Chad Myers to talk about Fluent NHibernate. Fluent NHibernate is a API that eliminates the messy XML files. It will create the mapping files and configuration file. In this demo, Chad will convert the Nhibernate Made Simple project on Code Project to use the Fluent NHibernate.

In this episode we will continue our short series on how to use the FluentNHibernate library to create you NHibernate mapping files. We will walk you though how to create your mappings for tables which have Composite Keys. This is NOT meant to teach you how to use the NHibernate OR/M.

In this episode we will give you an introduction to the S#arp Architecture for the ASP.NET MVC Framework.  This is a solid architectural foundation for rapidly building maintainable web applications leveraging the ASP.NET MVC framework with NHibernate. The primary advantage to be sought in using any architectural framework is to decrease the code one has to write while increasing the quality of the end product.

In the 7th and final episode of this series, you’ll see some code examples of working with collections of related objects and how lazy loading and cascade operations work from a code perspective. We’ll also discuss object lifecycle management in NHibernate as well as guidance on how to manage lifecycle and cascade operations on collections of related objects. Finally, we’ll discuss how to perform ad-hoc queries with NHibernate including simple as well as aggregate projection queries using both the Hibernate Query Language (HQL) …
