|---|---|
| NHibernateSessionManager | Handles creation and management of sessions and transactions. It is a singleton because building the initial session factory is very expensive. Inspiration for this class came from Chapter 8 of Hibernate in Action by Bauer and King. Although it is a sealed singleton you can use TypeMock (http://www.typemock.com) for more flexible testing. |
| NHibernateSessionManager.Nested | Assists with ensuring thread-safe, lazy singleton |
| StringToVarCharPropertyConvention | Ensures that all of our strings are stored as varchar instead of nvarchar. Map to varchar to substantially improve the performance of queries. |
| TransactionManager |
