Question

Right now, the session factory just finds all .hbm.xml files embedded in the current assembly it seems. I now have a situation where I only want the session factory to load the list of mappings that I specify. How can I do this?

Thanks,

Isaac

You can use the Configuration.AddResources(IEnumerable<string> paths, Assembly assembly) and specify a desired list of mappings, do your own filtering if you insist having the mappings embedded in the same assembly. Otherwise I would recommend Sergio’s answer.

You can use a static method on Configuration class to return a list of available mappings in an assembly, then you can remove the ones you don’t want:

var mappings = Configuration.GetAllHbmXmlResourceNames(assembly);
// TODO: filter mappings
cfg.AddResources(mappingsFiltered, assembly);
