NHibernate new SchemaExport(cfg).Execute(false, true, false, false); No fourth bool parameter!

Question

I'm trying to follow the NHibernate tutorial, "Your first NHibernate based applicaton:Revision #4" at NHibernate Forge.

But the line: new SchemaExport(cfg).Execute(false, true, false, false);

Will not compile because it says there is no overload that takes four boolean paramaeters!

I am using NHibernate 2.1.2 in Visual Studio 2008 C#. All the samples I have seen clearly use this call with four boolean parameters. Has something changed in the latest version of NHibernate with the call to SchemaExport()?

I am trying to create a simple table in my database in a test method. I am using MS SQL Express 2008 as my database. I have tried the Create(true, true) call and it at least compiles and runs, but the table never seems to persist in the database.

Yes, it changed from NH2.0.xGA to NH2.1.0. It used to be:

void Execute(bool script, bool export, bool justDrop, bool format)

Now it's:

void Execute(bool script, bool export, bool justDrop)

so just remove the format parameter. This was replaced by the format_sql config property:

<property name="format_sql">true</property> 

Here's the corresponding issue.
