Thursday, August 12, 2010 12:04:44 PM GMT Thursday, August 12, 2010 4:20:39 AM GMT
NHibernate has the facility to map integer columns in the database to enum values in your objects. However, the Mindscape NHibernate Designer doesn’t automatically know about your enum types, so by default you won’t find your enum types in the Data Type drop-down.
