I've been looking for good documentation for nhibernate, specifically version 2.0. I've recently returned to .NET development and for the life of me, I can't find the right sort of documentation (or even the most recent). Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Having recently implemented NHibernate myself I found the most help with watching the Summer of NHibernate series. While its not questions + answers it was very enlightening. The author was also very helpful when I had questions.
I learned a lot from NHibernate Best Practices with ASP.NET, 1.2nd Ed. By Billy McCafferty. I didn't implement or agree with all of the practices there, but most of them were quite helpfull. It really got me thinking about the details of it all before I started implementing.
When I used NHibernate it was so close to Hibernate that most of the documentation worked for both. Try the Java docs if you can't find an answer for the .NET version and see if it works.
The new NHibernate wiki already has a lot of content. I think that's a great place to go for reference (it already has all the docs).
For help, the NHUsers google group is very active and helpful.
There is a relatively new site starting at NHForge that aims to be the definitive source for NHibernate-related documentation.
Yes NhForge is the 1st place to look, you can broswe the documentation, and read the wiki with a lot of recent articles. http://nhforge.org/Default.aspx
Also this blog, with some very didactic articles in april may 2009.(Sometimes very advanced topics) http://ayende.com/Blog/category/510.aspx
The blog of the nhibernate main coder.(bleeding edge of the nhibernate developpement) http://fabiomaulo.blogspot.com/
NHibernate FAQ, few but very interresting articles. http://blogs.hibernatingrhinos.com/nhibernate/Default.aspx
Hi,
You might want to try this search tool which filters just for NHibernate material.
Actually i believe that currently http://stackoverflow.com/ is probably the best place
