How would you go about reading the hbm.xml configuration files at runtime. I don't want to actually try to read the xml, I want to examine the Nhibernate classes that store this after it is loaded.

My goal is to be able to, at runtime, determine the table that a given class is persisted to. I see that I can use .Net attributes on the objects themselves and therefore I could use Reflection to read those attributes. And, that is what I will have to do if I can't read it from NHibernate.

So, a pointer in the right direction would be helpful...

Thanks!

Well, it looks as though I can do this by keeping my Configuration object that I used to create a SessionFactory. (I'm not sure why SessionFactory or Session doesn't expose a Configuration property. Maybe it does, but I can't find it).

So, once I have a Configuration object, getting the table name is pretty simple:



Maybe there is an easier way to do this (like if Session or SessionFactory exposes the Configuration object used to build it)....
