All these years and revisions later, does nHibernate still offer more?

I wouldn't know, I don't use either.

I guess recently I miss SessionLess or whatever it was called in nHibernate.
I know there's ways to set that up in EF, just a few extra steps.
I miss being able to choose the concurrency strategy, ie use this DateTime field, increment this integer field, use sql server TimeStamp, and so on.

I don't do much .net development any more these days, but back when I did, I always preferred NH because I had to support legacy databases. I could map a boolean in my model to a char(1) in the database without having to muck up the model code with mapping information. At the time, EF (5? I think it was?) didn't have that capability yet. Don't know if it has it yet or not.

I have never used nH. However, the latest version EF is just fine, and I have not needed to go elsewhere.

Best I can say is take a look at NH or it's parent Hibernate.
It'll give you an idea where a lot of the EF functionality came from.

Who cares? Avoid both/all.

The problem with NH is the same with many of these frameworks is the lack of documentation and trying to work out how to do things is a frustrating trawl through 7 year old SO threads giving solutions that no longer work with your version.
All though this evidently EF's downfall too given this thread. I think people think you just drag things onto a designer with EF and that's all it can do. EF is capable of much more than people think, including custom mapping, having an entity represent data from multiple tables, reusable complex types and all sorts but you really need to get a book on it to appreciate everything it can do.

Yes, that is kind of how the industry works.
Only enough documentation to keep the EU off your back.
Write books/online videos/articles/etc to fill in the blanks.
Show me the $$$$.

What lead you to that conclusion? No doubt we'll iron out the problem, four you C, we have little else cleft to do.

Just got a popup in Word notifying me that it could no longer show misspellings as there are too many.
I guess that's what happens when you write a 100+ page document in Word with tons of code examples.
On the bright side, all those annoying red lines are finally gone!

There is a place in Word where you can turn off that "feature" without waiting for it to go over limit.

Since English isn't my native language I have to rely quite lot to the spelling features. What I often do is that I define a separate style for coding. While using different formatting like font for the code I also disable the spelling check for that specific style.

I find it useful too, as it often catches error like "there" or "their" or when my neurons in my fingers type something that they often type in code but the brain wanted a slightly different word in English (can't quite think of an example right now.)

Unfortunately I have to write this in the template the publisher provided, and my template-fu is non-existent for figuring out how to tweak it for that.
