Suppose you add an extra property to your business object - does NHibernate handle adding the extra column in the database?

Is there an accepted way of handling this? Assume the table had existing data.

This is not handled by NH. DON'T use hbm2ddl, it will build a table from scratch, but will attempt to drop the tables before issuing a create. It doesn't modify the existing table.

Ok understood. Is the convention to manually update the table?
