Question

am trying to implement fluent nhibernate in MVC project…there were no build errors… but when i run the project i get this exception

System.Xml.Schema.XmlSchemaValidationException: The element 'class' in namespace 'urn:nhibernate-mapping-2.2' has incomplete content. List of possible elements expected: 'meta, subselect, cache, synchronize, comment, tuplizer, id, composite-id' in namespace 'urn:nhibernate-mapping-2.2'.

have no idea what am doing wrong here… the following is the code for opening session factory…

Private Function CreateSessionFactory() As ISessionFactory
    Dim sessionFactoryObject As ISessionFactory
    sessionFactoryObject = Fluently.Configure().Database(FluentNHibernate.Cfg.Db.MsSqlConfiguration.MsSql2005.ConnectionString("Data Source=.\sqlexpress;Initial Catalog=Designs;User ID=sa;Password=root")).Mappings(Function(x) x.FluentMappings.Add(GetType(DesignMap))).BuildSessionFactory()
    Return sessionFactoryObject
End Function

this is really driving me nuts….thanks in advance…:)

update-the mappings
the design table map

Public Class DesignMap
Inherits ClassMap(Of Design)

Public Sub DesignMap()
    Table("DesignList")
    Id(Function(x) x.DesignId)
    Map(Function(x) x.DesignType)
    References(Function(x) x.Designer, "DesignerId")
End Sub
End Class

the designer table map

Public Class DesignerMap
Inherits ClassMap(Of Designer)
Public Sub DesignerMap()
    Table("DesignerList")
    Id(Function(x) x.DesignerId)
    Map(Function(x) x.DesignerName)
    Map(Function(x) x.DesignerCompany)
    HasMany(Function(x) x.DesignersDesigns)
End Sub
End Class

new edit– the entity property looks like this

    Public Overridable Property Name() As String
     Get
        Return _name
     End Get
     Protected Set(ByVal value As String)
        _name = value
     End Set
    End Property

am i going the right way..?

Answer 1

found the problem…the constructor for the map was wrong…it should be like this…

Public Class DesignMap
 Inherits ClassMap(Of Design)

 Public Sub New()
  Table("DesignList")
  Id(Function(x) x.DesignId)
  Map(Function(x) x.DesignType)
  References(Function(x) x.Designer, "DesignerId")
End Sub
End Class

problems of working in both C# and vb.net at the same time i guess..!!

and “Matthew Talbert” was correct…making all the properties Overrideable is important..

thanks guys…:)
