Dear all
I am using the folowing C# code

public class test
{
.
.

enum eRType {CrossS, Scann, Refrac}
.
.
.

RModel RM = new RModel();
RM.RMType = eRType.Scann.ToString(); //the RMType is property

}

the class field containg the folowing code:
String RMType {get; set;}

the DB (oracle) i have
RMType Number(10) ;


what should i write in the hbm.xml file????
how should i mapp the enum???
Thanks

Enums are supported natively by NHibernate. We just rely on NHibernate's use of reflection to infer the type of the enum property and map the property to an integer field in the database.

so just simply map it with the property tag??? doesnt the reflection has any cost????
Is there any way that i can tell the data types?

you can try this:
class file:


hbm file:
