What I like most about this book is that it shows how to do unit tests and integration tests while using nhibernate.

The only .NET ORM I have used so far is Entitiy Framework. As I heard a lot of good things about NHibernate I'd like to give it a try for several smaller projects. But I'd like to learn it the right way. By that I mean not only setting up the whole thing, but also testing, profiling and logging. I'm also curious about the use of LINQ in NHibernate..

I've been using NHibernate as a
dilettante for some time now, either by skimming the internet for
information (SO, this blog and others) but i never sat down with a book
on the subject to really delve in. I've only watched 3.0 from a
distance, not really taking time to see what's new but i'd like to read
this book to have a solid base from which i could expand.

For example i've always relied on this post
(http://ayende.com/blog/1671/me... to
integrate rough tuning to my applications. I'm curious to see what the
book covers on this subject and what new options may be available in
3.0

I would like to know more about creating the database right from my domain model with nhibernate. I have a little experience with it but would like to become proficient enough to bring it to work daily.

When I moved out Ent lib madness for long time, I don't know which one to pick (EF/ nH).. but based on popularity I chose nH..but was not disappointed even though had a intial time in understanding bit on entity way of handling data. Now I'm looking 1) defining relations 2) managing trans 3) map file generation 4) Sp interaction etc are something need to explore every time.. better I have it handy..

I'm new to NH so I hope this book can introduce me in this new world

I bought this book the moment it came out. Bar none the best NH book to date. Had to get a copy for the office at work after I got one for myself. :)

The last few months, I have been reading a great deal online about NHibernate as I climb the learning-curve hill. Gabriel Schenker writings are among the very best resources I continue to turn to for help in understanding how to get NHibernate to do what I want. An entire book with his clear and concise explainations on "How to" with NHibernate 3.0 is very timely given my current job assignment.

I'm most interested in learning more about the NHibernate LINQ Provider and how I can more effectively test my domain models alongside the NHibernate mappings.

I am interested in learning how to use a ORM like NHibernate in my projects because up to this point I have been doing my database to object plumbing by hand. I have known for long time there is a better way but have not found the right resource to help me down the path.

I'm interested in the data validation techniques and unit testing aspects of the book but also in learning more about the latest NHibernate library.

This book would be a great way for the members of my team who are not experienced with NHibernate to catch their skills up to what we need to be productive as a team. I am especially eager to see the chapters on common pitfalls and on profiling and monitoring NHibernate. This looks like a great book on NHibernate.

Looking forward to seeing the common pitfalls

Since I an new to Nhibernate, like the fact that this book has clear, concise, step-by-step instructions. I learn the best by doing.

I'm new to nhibernate, so it will be great to start in a more solid and with adviced by experienced way. Like the creating the environment topic as an example.

I'm most interested in the building blocks to setting up a solid development process for projects using NHibernate. Seeing what the pitfalls are and some good step-by-step examples on how to get things going is super important for new team members who are drinking from the firehose.

In apps I've seen + written, data access code usually ends up getting pretty poor (or no) test coverage. Other aspects of the system are generally easier to isolate and test. I am particularly interested in learning the techniques used in the section on integration and unit testing of the data access layer.
Looks like a great book!

I've used NHibernate 2 before, but that's been some time ago. I look forward to learning about NH3, especially in combination with LINQ, and refreshing my NH knowledge in general.

For me most important thing is to know how to configure system for use
of NHibernate in a clear and concise way. Also methods for avoiding
common pitfalls are very interesting.

Charlie Sanborn — Mon, 12 Dec 2011 10:18:41 -0000

I am excited to learn more about unit testing and integration testing the data access layer. Nhibernate has been part of our stack for years, and that is something I have struggled with.

I am currently using NHibernate at my company and could always to learn little more. I am particularly interested in the chapters on sessions & transactions, profiling, queries and common pitfalls to avoid. I think this book would help me understand how to best use NHibernate and some best practices.
