Not exactly one line. A few months ago there has been another change in DP, but also (and much more important): since .NET 3.5 (or .NET 2.0 SP1) the required permissions for Reflection.Emit have been changed.

One line code change in DP to support Medium Trust? Man I feel stupid now.

NHPG is a workaround for the issue that is now fixed. We shouldn’t be needing this anymore.

@samk: you can get the latest compiled binaries from SVN: https://cuyahoga.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/cuyahoga/trunk/lib

Fantastic job Martijn!

Any chance you [or someone else] can publish a patched NHibernate+Castle package that will work in Medium Trust? I’m attempting to do everything with Express versions, but they don’t allow full-blown VS Solutions, so a bunch of the References break within the solutions. As such, I can’t recompile NHibernate with the new Castle dlls.

I see a lot of potential with NHibernate and I’ve invested about two weeks trying to learn NHibernate and get it to work in Medium Trust. I even jumped into MyGeneration and learned to use the tool to generate POCOs and XML mapping files (wasn’t happy with the existing templates as they didn’t seem to convert data types well…a lot of Unknown types were present in the outputfiles). But I am about ready to give up and go back to SubSonic.

Eventually I will probably get on board and buy VS Professional but w/ VS 2010 just around the corner it doesn’t make sense to make the investment now. In addition, I’ll be releasing my project as Open Source and expect the majority of users to be using Express Editions and shared hosting.

The whole Medium Trust thing is frustrating though. I can understand hosts needing to protect their servers and their clients’ instances, but even MS fails to test their code to make sure it runs in Medium Trust. An example is the Entity Framework…currently you need to compile your edmx file in a seperate strongly typed class to get it to work. Annoying to say the least.

@Krzysztof, I’m running the latest Castle trunk now and it works fine.

@Others: the SVN trunk of last week unfortunately contained a wrong Castle build. Fixed it.

Martijn,

great stuff Martin.

Looking forward to the 2.0 version.
I have submitted a patch for the File System Service, let me know if you need any help in integrating it.

Martijn,

that is good news! thanx!
i didn’t care much about medium trust because i run my own server. i know that some friends (cuyahoga fans and shared hosters ;-( ) will be very happy with this news

When will v2.0 be released? any planning?
