The classic articles about NHibernate, at least for me, are the Server Side .Net ones, here and here, by Justin Gehtland.

There are two example applications for NHibernate: This one by Scott Bellware and this by Paul Wilson. While Cuyahoga is using NHibernate (and my site run on Cuyahoga), I wouldn’t recommend it to a beginner, it is definitely a very advance application.

Benjamin has a lot to say about NHibernate. And Nikola has a very nice introductory post on it here.

This is another beautiful practice series for NHibernate. This one is written by Alan Northam. Following are the links:

1. Getting Started with NHibernate: Part I
2. Getting Started with NHibernate: Part II
3. Getting Started with NHibernate: Part III
4. Getting Started with NHibernate: Part III – Updated
5. Getting Started with NHibernate: Part IV
6. Custom Profile Provider with NHibernate

Most time, a TDD newbie comes with a question that is whether to write every test first or opposite write code first; I think this is truly a philosophy problem and the following blog just give out a solution or idea that confirms my thought.

Hope this helps.

NHibernate is cool, but it is so hard for many people to find out some useful enough real practical tutorials or guides.

Ben Scheirman had a very cool article series about NHibernate together with Domain-Driven Design (DDD). From this series you can get a practical architecture process experience and finally get a complete NHibernate based DDD development experience. Following are the links:

1. A Journey with NHibernate – Part 1
2. A Journey With NHibernate – Part 2
3. A Journey With NHibernate (and DDD) – Part 3
4. A Journey with Domain Driven Design (and NHibernate) – Part 4
5. A Journey with Domain Driven Design (and NHibernate) – Part 5
6. A Journey with Domain Driven Design (and NHibernate) – Part 6

Dependency injection is a palliative for environments that unnecessarily couple creation, lookup, and interaction between collaborators.

What do you think?

听起来像中庸之道，不过细想起来的确是大道理。

有些朋友自信不够，喜欢妄自菲薄，这时，我就要和他说，别不把自己当回事。总不把自己当回事不是好事，现代社会竞争很激烈，总想逃避，总想找到世外桃源是不现实的。事实也证明，真正能享受到世外桃源的，也大部分都是挺把自己当回事，艰苦奋斗出来的。加油！

然而有些朋友却正相反，他们内心膨胀得很，明明也就那样，但是非得把自己想得很是那么一回事，谈话、做事一概太像那么一回事。以为装相别人感觉不出，得意得很。事实上呢？有一句话很合适这些人，装相总归是装相。谦虚使人进步，低调点，多自省点对他们有好处。对他们来说，最好别太把自己毫无原则的太当一回事。不然，跟头会摔大的。

除了相对稍高但与物价相比所剩无几的薪水以及所谓的高尚生活，真看不出来还有什么。地铁通道内污浊得几近窒息的空气？城市高架上等到花儿都要谢了的堵车？

还好，下周去深圳。

As an experienced developer, I always try to persuade some people to make things as simple as possible. It’s an ultimate state that you can always solve problem with a simple solution. Anyway, many times, I’m just a speaker. 🙂

Today I read a great article talking about Principles of Simplicity. You can read it here.

It has been a long time, almost one year, since jackma.net (my weblog site) crashed.

Now, jackma.net is still not alive…

I decided to turn to this msn space to go on my blog life. Anyway, writing something is always good for one to consolidate the thoughts, to remember something not so important but not bad to remember.

I will carry on my style, most of the blogs here will focus on technology with some of them will talk about the non-tech stuff like song I love, photos I take, traveling and so on.
