This package provides an alternative MySQL/MariaDB driver for NHibernate
in addition to NHibernate.Driver.MySqlDataDriver provided by nhibernate-core.
It uses the MySqlConnector library which is an alternative to MySql.Data that may be more performant in both async and sync workloads and fixes dozens of outstanding bugs in MySql.Data.
Set connection.driver_class in your NHibernate session factory config to:
connection.driver_class: NHibernate.Driver.MySqlConnector.MySqlConnectorDriver, NHibernate.Driver.MySqlConnector or use the Configure-by-code helper:
new Configuration().DataBaseIntegration(c => c.MySqlConnectorDriver());Values of the other parameters should stay the same as when using MySql.Data:
connection.provider: NHibernate.Connection.DriverConnectionProvider
dialect: One of the available MySQL dialects e.g. NHibernate.Dialect.MySQL5Dialect
