Windows XP x64 with VS.NET 2005 & Edit & Continue
Thu, Oct 20 2005 8:54 AM

i'm using Windows x64 for a while now, and it's really, really fast. The userexperience is great.

There are some major drawbacks:
- Virtual PC does not work
- Deamon Tools does not work
- Edit & Continue is not working in VS.NET 2005 (and will not be working with the final release of Visual Studio 2005)

But the thing irritating me most is that every time I try to type some code while debugging I get a messagebox that Edit & Continue is not supported in windows x64
Does anybody know how I can get rid of this messagebox ?

NHibernate 1.0 released
Thu, Oct 20 2005 8:10 AM

After years of development, the NHibernate team finally released version 1.0 of their O/R Mapper.
(together with the
contrib which include nullable types for .NET 1.1 and attribute based mapping)

Because NHibernate was still in beta, many people thought it was a risk to use. While the beta editions already were very stable for a long time. 

Lets hope they soon start implementing .NET 2.0 features like generics, nullable types and the new transaction model.
(Like Paul Wilson already did with his WilsonORMapper) 

Lets keep an eye on the EntitySpaces team and see if they can come near the flexibility of NHibernate with their O/R Mapper.
Nhibernate can use the experience of Hibernate which is a huge advantage.
