I'm looking for ways to generate the application database full structure based on the NHibernate mapping data. The idea is to give the user an option to supply a database-connection string and then to build their a database with the structure that the application needs.
The database need to independent - it means that it needs to work with any database that are supported by NHibernate.
By full structure I mean that I want to generate also the index fields, and the relationship between tables.
Is their few ways to accomplish this with NHibernate? Is so, what are they?
You use the SchemaExport class for this purpose. The API is a little odd but it works nonetheless.
