[fluent-nhib] Re: Any idea when new version (> 1.3.0.717) of NuGet package for FNH will be released

Desmond,

I've always used the default "table-per-subclass" strategy, which
worked perfectly for me in version 1.0.   I just used pure Automapping
- did not need to do *any* additional work to handle inheritance.   I
can't speak for table-per-hierarchy - sorry.

However, there seems to be a problem with later versions - at least
with my object model.

Some deeply derived classes (i.e. 3 or 4 levels of inheritance) were
not being Automapped properly.  I eventually found a bug (reported as
issue #113), and submitted a fix, but I don't believe this has been
integrated into the main branch yet.  Only one function changed, so it
would be fairly easy for you to get the source and apply the fix
yourself.

If this does not help, suggest you post a question here and to Stack
Overflow, with sample code and detailed description of what happens.

"multiple levels of inheritance"

I have spent quite a days trying to map that with table-per-hierarchy
and finally gave up on it at the moment. Would be interesting to know
how you tackle that.

Interesting.

In my experience (limited to a single greenfield project, admittedly),
everything mostly _does_ "just work"!

The only extra side-work I had to do was a couple of overrides to work
around some bugs in FNH, which were quickly fixed in the next
release.  And this was for a reasonably complicated object model, with
multiple levels of inheritance, multiple nested lists of other
objects, etc.

I've always wondered why more people don't use it - mapping with code
looks like a lot more work.

James,

Thanks for checking in, and congrats on your move to Oz.  I've always
wanted to visit there, and would be very interested to hear your
impressions once you've settled in.

That's probably a good idea, and might keep people from abandoning FNH
because of perceived lack of support and improvements.

Very glad to hear that!

Perhaps we as a group could take some of the load off you, and keep
things moving forward.

Speaking for myself, I've only fixed one bug (#113), and really don't
understand the codebase.  But I could probably help with things like
documentation, testing, etc.

Is there anything else you could suggest?

Sorry everyone for my absence. I've been largely neglecting FNH lately 
primarily because I'm in the middle of a big life change; aka, I've moved 
to the other side of the world, changed jobs, and everything else that 
comes with that.

I'll try to put together some kind of official statement, but it boils down 
to this:

Is FNH dead? No.
Is FNH neglected? Yes.
Will it remain so? Perhaps.

I don't have the time or desire right now to run the project at the pace I 
have been doing for the past few years, but I also have no desire to let 
the hard work of myself and others fall apart. Everything is still crazy 
right now, but once I get settled again I do intend to pick things up.

hah, funny how things work: I tried automappings at first because it seemed

side-work.
so i just opted to KISS and do explicit mappings.

i guess you could say i don't know what i'm missing =)

I recently spent many, many days trying to upgrade from FNH 1.0 / NH
2.1.2 to FNH 1.3 / NH 3.2.

It was a disaster - multiple undocumented breaking changes in NH, and
at least one bug in FNH I had to fix (submitted to GitHub - issue
#113).  Posted questions here and to Stack Overflow - got almost zero
response.

Finally gave up in disgust and reverted to the old versions.

The big one for me is FNH Automapping - I'm not aware of _any_ ORM -
open source or commercial - that does anything remotely equivalent.

I don't use FNH code-first myself, but most of the people who do say
that the FNH approach is much better.

Well if one wanted, one could preserve the FNH syntax and rebuild it on top of 
the existing metamodels.

I personally do not like the NH fluent mappings at all, and would rather use 
FNH.

But I have no development time to allocate to FNH, and if it dies off I can't 
do much about it. Anyone that has time would be well advised to send pull 
requests though :)
