Hi. Please can you tell me if it is currently possible to load existing FluentNHibernate mapping out of a project into the designer? If not, do you plan to add this feature in the future? Thanks. Ruslan. |

Hi Ruslan, We do not currently reverse engineer FluentNHibernate mappings. What you can do is simply take the database first approach initially and drag the tables on and have the generator set to generate FluentNHibernate mappings. That'll get the basics in there quickly. We don't have any high priority plans to add reverse engineering of existing mappings but I'll make sure it's on our backlog. Thanks, John-Daniel Trask |

Thank you John. Yes, that's the way to go at the moment, however if there are not only tables in the mapping but enums and complex types as well it becomes a bit tedious to migrate a large project. It would be not essential but nice to have feature for sure. I'm not talking about reading and maintaining a custom files' structure as I can imagine all the pitfalls on the way, but only about one-way importing from an existing project which has valid NHibernate mapping. Cheers. Ruslan. |
