I used this statement to load the mapping file.

Configuration cfg = new Configuration().AddXmlFile("ParameterRepository.hbm.xml");

However it said that missing the hibernate.dialect...

Here is the error message:

/*
1) Castor.Installation.Parameter.UsageDemoUnitTestCase.Demo2 : NHibernate.MappingException : Could not compile the mapping document: ParameterRepository.hbm.xml
----> NHibernate.HibernateException : The dialect was not set. Set the property hibernate.dialect.

--MappingException

*/

If I simply use

/*
_sessionFactory = new Configuration().Configure().BuildSessionFactory();
*/

it works, as I placed those configurations in the hybernate.cfg.xml.
But the mapping files are not loaded...

I was wondering why the first approach doesn't work??

Could anyone please give me some instructions?
Thanks very very very very much!

Have you set "Build Action" to "Embedded Ressource for the configuration file ? And btw the name should be "hibernate.cfg.xml" not "hybernate.cfg.xml", but that might just be a typo in the post.
