When it doesn't do the update, nHibernate does not return an exception or anything like that. It simply does nothing. Have you ever had this kind of trouble? ...

I have a VB6 app which calls a .NET assembly, which references settings from the app.config file. By default, .NET looks for a config file named after the VB6 app. How can I redirect it to use a different config file name?

I also read at MSDN that when you implement IComparable you'll need to override the Equals method (and GetHashCode by extension I presume). I have three doubts: 1) Any of the assu...
