How do you handle Membership/Roles when using NHibernate?
asp.net-membership, asp.net-mvc, membership-provider, nhibernate
Solution
I rolled my own. It's actually a lot easier than most people think (I was surprised too) - once you actually get rolling, everything comes together pretty quickly. It's one thing to spend days or more solving a solved problem, but this took me all of a few hours including planning.
Problem
I'm about to kick off a new project using NHibernate and ASP.Net MVC and have come upon the question of membership. I'm wondering if I should use a 3rd party NHibernate Membership/Role provider, create my own, or just skip the providers all together. So far I've looked at: Manuel Abadia's NHCustomProviders - It seems like a lot of configuraton, not sure if I want to put all that in my web.config. Leo Vildosola's NHibernateProvider - Which doesn't appear to be supported by the project owner anymore since he doesn't use NHibernate anymore. Eucalypto - I like the table structure, but am a bit warry of all the extra CMS stuff it comes with. * Each of these projects looks like it hasn't been touched in a while, which could mean extra work just getting them updated to use the newest version of NHibernate. This is one of those problems that's been solved many times and I would like to spend my time solving new problems, and hopefully adding some business value.
