Hello,

I have this exception (Unknown entity class) when I execute : session.Save(newUser,2)

I believe User.hbm.xml must be "embedded resource", but with Visual Web Developer 2005 Express, I can't do

thanks

my code :

ISession session = factory.OpenSession();
ITransaction transaction = session.BeginTransaction();

User newUser = new User();
newUser.Id = "joe_cool";
newUser.UserName = "Joseph Cool";
newUser.Password = "abc123";
newUser.EmailAddress = "joe@cool.com";
newUser.LastLogon = DateTime.Now;

// Tell NHibernate that this object should be saved
session.Save(newUser,1);

// commit all of the changes to the DB and close the ISession
transaction.Commit();
session.Close();

Please note I'm using Hibernate, not NHibernate, so take my advice with caution.
If User is not mapped as an entity, but as a component, then it's normal. You must save its container, it will propagate savings. If you don't want to be forced to work with the container, then map User directly as an entity.

hi, vince23
Normal nhibernate config file must be like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

Are you see "<mapping assembly="Domain" />"this node?
I guess the assembly that your give is work wrong or not incluede the entity "User"!
good luck!

If you can't embed the resource into an assembly then you'll need to tell the configuration to load the files from a filepath so the session factory can be built with your objects.
