NHibernate QuickStart
Introduction
This QuickStart application uses the all too familiar Northwind
database and uses NHibernate browse and edit customers. It It is a very
simple application that directly uses the DAO layer in some cases and also
has a simple service layer that simulated a fullillment process. See the
integration tests as well for insight into how it works. The application
uses Spring's declarative transaction management features,
HibernateTemplate helper class, and Open Session In View module. The
example will be updated to not use HibernateTemplate and instead use the
standard NHibernate API in a future release. All functionality is still
present when using the standard NHibernate API, as Spring transaction
managment is integrated into NHibernate extension points and exception
translation is provided by AOP advice. See the section titled Implementing
DAOs based on plain Hibernate 1.2/2.0 API" in the hibernate orm section of
the reference docs for more information.To run the application
make the Web application
the project that starts and set Default.aspx as the start page. You will
see a list of customers. If you select 'edit' then you can edit some
customer info and save it by pressing the save button. Note that you will
need to explicitly navigate back to the Default.aspx page and reload it in
order to see the changes.
