Data is not really storing database in nhibernate - nhibernate

Question

I am writing a simple program using nhibernate
Program.cs
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using NHibernate;
using NHibernate.Cfg;
using System.Data.SqlServerCe;
using NHibernate.ByteCode.LinFu;
namespace FirstSolution
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Product p = new Product();
p.id = "padu";
p.name = "Sayan";
p.category = "Bogus";
Configuration cfg = new Configuration();
cfg.AddXmlFile("C:/Users/win7/Documents/Visual Studio 2008/Projects/FirstSolution/FirstSolution/Product.hbm.xml");
try
{
using (ISessionFactory factory = cfg.BuildSessionFactory())
{
using (ISession session = factory.OpenSession())
{
using (ITransaction transaction = session.BeginTransaction())
{
// Tell NHibernate that this object should be saved
session.Save(p);
// commit all of the changes to the DB and close the ISession
session.Flush();
transaction.Commit();
session.Close();
}
}
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Console.WriteLine(ex.Message);
}
string s;
s = Console.ReadLine();
}
}
}
App.config
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

Product.cs
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
namespace FirstSolution
{
public class Product
{
public String id { get; set; }
public String name { get; set; }
public String category { get; set; }
}
}
Program is running without any exception. Generated sql is showing on console. But no data is saved in UserTable of Database1.mdf

Answer 1

Database1.mdf is being copied to the /bin/Debug folder when the application is built and the data is saved there.

Answer 2

Hmm. I'm surprised that you don't get exceptions. The Product class must have virtual properties, otherwise it won't work.
Also, I see you're using the MsSqlCeDialect. I haven't used SqlExpress but SqlExpress != SqlCe. Trying using MsSql2005Dialect or MsSql2005Dialect.
