Integrating Nhibernate.Search with Nhibernate 2

Question

I have just spent all day attempting to get NHibernate.Search working alongside NHibernate 2.0 and am sorry to say that I have still not managed it. I ran into the problem poste

Answer 1

In order to setup EventListeners, you need to add this code when initializing NHibernate:

NHibernate.Cfg.Configuration cfg = new NHibernate.Cfg.Configuration();
//Load configuration

//Add NHibernate.Search listeners
cfg.SetListener(NHibernate.Event.ListenerType.PostUpdate, new FullTextIndexEventListener());
cfg.SetListener(NHibernate.Event.ListenerType.PostInsert, new FullTextIndexEventListener());
cfg.SetListener(NHibernate.Event.ListenerType.PostDelete, new FullTextIndexEventListener());

var factory = cfg.BuildSessionFactory();

Your web.config/app.config file must be changed in order to include the following:

    
        

        

    

    
    
        
            NHibernate.Search.Store.FSDirectoryProvider, NHibernate.Search


            PATH TO LUCENE.NET STORE

            event
        
    

    
        
    

    ...

And finally: when you create an ISession instance, remember to use this code in order to get an IFullTextSession instead.

IFullTextSession session = Search.CreateFullTextSession(factory.OpenSession());

This should work with Lucene 2.0 and NHibernate 2.0.
