In both cases, there is some cut off point where I cut out the middle man and go to the XML. Trying to setup complex stuff in either AR or FN is just ugly."

It's by no means a comprehensive guide and until now I have only used naked NH with XML, so the post is mostly about my latest experiments: http://www.tigraine.at/2009/05/27/comparing-castle-activerecord-to-fluent-nhibernate/ There is hardly any "wisdom" in there. But if you want to see AR mappings compared to Fluent NH mappings.. there you go :) greetings, Daniel On May 27, 3:23 am, Jason Meckley <[email protected]> wrote: > I won't say one is right or wrong.
