Unknown entity class

I am having problems in my ASP.NET 2.0 website with adding my mapping files correctly (or at least I think).

I have tried mapping with attributes, manually adding the hbm.xml by path, and putting the classes and hbm.xml files in a seperate class project and then adding the assembly.

I keep getting: Unknown entity class: Library.Player exception when I try to save a new object.

Right now I have the classes and mapping files in an assembly and then trying to add it.

Here is where I add the assembly:

Code:

NHibernate.Cfg.Configuration config = new NHibernate.Cfg.Configuration();
config.AddAssembly(typeof(Library.Player).Assembly);
NHibernate.ISessionFactory factory = config.BuildSessionFactory();

This is my Player.hbm.xml file located in the same assembly:

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<hibernate-mapping xmlns="urn:nhibernate-mapping-2.0">
  <class name="Library.Player, Library" table="player">
    <id name="Username" column="username">
      <generator class="assigned"/>
    </id>
    
    <version name="Version" column="version"/>
  </class>
</hibernate-mapping>

What do I need to go to get it to load the configuration correctly?

I had two problems, first it was looking for the .hbm.xml file with the full qualified class name rather than just the class name.

Second, it was not including the xml file in the assembly. I had to go into the file's properties and set it as embedded. That seemed to do the trick!
