The next installment of the Summer of NHibernate Screencast series is now available for general download!
In this session we explore the NHibernate SchemaExport class and start to exercise its ability to generate our database schema directly from our hbm.xml mapping files. In addition, we touch briefly on some of the relative advantages of DDD (Domain [...]
I have just been proven wrong, and this happens so infrequently that it warrants its own blog post (kidding!)
In a number of the installments of the Summer of NHibernate screencast series, I have repeatedly made the assertion that when one makes a change to an embedded resource in their Visual Studio project, the developer [...]
The prolific writer Arthur C. Clark once (famously) wrote:
"Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic."
As software developers, we are presented just about daily with such ’sufficiently advanced’ technology — the world of what one could know about software engineering techniques, languages, frameworks, databases, compilers, etc., etc., etc. is just so vast now that no [...]
The latest installment of the Summer of NHibernate screencast series is now available for download.
I will warn potential viewers in advance that this session is heavily focused on techniques and approaches that tend to contradict most Domain-Driven-Design/Development practices so please don’t waste your time telling me this — I know it already . Leveraging NHibernate [...]

As anyone who knows me is well-aware, I am a confirmed tool-addict. If there is a utility, framework, add-in, add-on, or plug-in I want to have read about it, tried it, evaluated it, and decided for myself whether its worth keeping in my developer’s tool belt. As a professional software developer, I’m unashamedly and unrepentantly [...]
