NHibernate File Names

[smlemmon]

Hi,

I just wondered if there is any way to stop the file names that are generate for the NHibernate entities and mapping files being prefixed with the model name.

For example, if my model name is TestModel, all the generated files come out as :-

TestModel.Xxxxxxx.cs etc...

I just want the name to be Xxxxxx.cs without the model name prefix.

Many thanks

Simon

For this, you should modify a code generation template manually:
1) right click on the template in Model Explorer > Copy to Model Folder
2) open template and replace

Code: Select all

string rootFileName = baseFileName + "." + cls.Name;

with

Code: Select all

string rootFileName = cls.Name;

3) save template and regenerate the code.

The naming stategy of ED is indeed odd, IMHO.
I hope this will change in a future release because I'd rather not change the standard template manually.

Generating names like TestModel.Xxxxxxx.cs is a common feature of different ORM designers. Different models within a project may have classes with the same name; as a result one file overwrites another one when naming Xxxxxxx.cs is used.
