Behind the times with NHibernate 2

I am so behind the times ... NHibernate 2.0.1 GA was released last fall and 2.1.0 Alphas are coming out. In the mean time, Hibernate.org has been subsumed by Redhat's JBoss. The url www.hibernate.org doesn't take you anywhere useful, and following the javascript menu to projects / services / hibernate still doesn't get you anywhere - pure garbage. It is clear that JBoss wants to sell you their enterprise build of Hibernate instead (that "Products" link works).

I have been so busy with my day job that I haven't been keeping up. I work at a hospital, supporting Cerner Millenium - writing CCL, Perl, Python, Microsoft SQL (occasionally), and a bit of C#.

Cerner CCL is a proprietary language that feels like a mash-up of Fortran IV and and an arcane dialect of SQL from 1976. The language used to run on VMS servers, but we have migrated to HP-UX, and I am OVERJOYED to have a choice of using a posix shell, ksh or csh. Also, I recently discovered that CCL allows me to map C library functions into the language. So far we have used this to allow file open, close, read, write and seek.

Destiny 2 - The Corrupted Nightfall

== Overview == This Dreaming City Nightfall is already considered one of the most irritating strikes, in part because of bugs that sometimes prevent players from proceeding to the next encounter. Notable bugged areas are the transition from the Elevator to the Knights Steps, and after the passage, the temple sometimes doesn't reveal a way to the shadow realm where you will take your leap. Important Note: After a "de-buff" from Particle Deconstruction, shoot the boss in the head! It is quite effective, and can melt her with some coordination. Champions: Unstoppable and Overload Shields: Arc, Solar and Void (many shields!) Don't place your well in the open where boss can snipe the sword! She will break your super. Pass the "Relic" (Orb) twice to maximize damage. == Loadouts == General: * Add Taken spec to every weapon Titans: * Bottom Tree Solar + Path of the Burning Steps or Phoenix Cradle * Sentinal Shield + Ursa, Aeon Gauntlets Warlocks: * Stasis + Blea...

Updated ActiveRecord Code Generator

Today, I updated the ActiveRecord Code Generator a bit. I checked in changes to use primary and foreign key details from INFORMATION_SCHEMA. The original code used naming conventions to decide what various fields were used for - ID = Primary Key, Field_ID = Foreign Key to table Fields. If you want to use naming conventions, let me know and I can add a setting in App.Config to allow this (along with any "real" key constraints).

Castle Active Record Code Generator

I have finally released my Code Generator to Google Code as Active-Record-Gen . What does it generate? It generates ActiveRecord classes mainly, but I have used it to generate stored procedures and sys-admin scripts as well. This code generator does not (yet) generate a full Windows application project or a Mono-Rail web site, but the generated code could be used in either. In fact, with a few tweaks, this could be used to generate NHibernate "poco" and .xbm files. If you want to know more, look at the screen shots above, or head over to Google Code and run it. In my haste to make my first EXE release before supper, I forgot to add the Template directory, which should be at the same directory level as the EXE and config files. I just (1.5 hours later) uploaded a new EXE, but 2 people have already downloaded the EXE (not the source though). As for the basic table object, it is built with the following assumptions: Table name is plural, class name is singular. Field ...
