See my comments below.... Figured out what stupid thing i was doing... :( 

All, I am trying out NHibernate for the first time and I am having some troubles getting it up and running.  I have downloaded the sample app from Hibernate.org and started to look at it as well as other samples from the net.

When I try to config NHibernate in my own application I get an error while trying to load an Assembly with the * .hbm.xml files.  Yes I do have that file marked as an embedded resource.

The error I am getting is the following:

System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'Iesi.Collections, Version=1.0.0.3, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=aa95f207798dfdb4' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

at NHibernate.Cfg.AssemblyHbmOrderer.GetHbmFiles()
at NHibernate.Cfg.Configuration.AddResources(Assembly assembly, IList resources, Boolean skipOrdering)
at NHibernate.Cfg.Configuration.AddAssembly(Assembly assembly, Boolean skipOrdering)
at NHibernate.Cfg.Configuration.AddAssembly(Assembly assembly)
at NHibernate.Cfg.Configuration.AddAssembly(String assemblyName)

I am using version 1.2.0.4000 of NHibernate and have the following assembles in my output folder.

 
Now according the example’s readme I need the HashCodeProvider.dll and iTextSharp.dll assemblies, is this true?  What versions?  Where can I find them?

Here is the code causing the issues. cfg = new Configuration(); // set provider & driver properties cfg.Properties.Add( Environment.ConnectionProvider, "NHibernate.Connection.DriverConnectionProvider" ); cfg.Properties.Add( Environment.ConnectionDriver, "NHibernate.Driver.SqlClientDriver" ); cfg.Properties.Add( Environment.Dialect, "NHibernate.Dialect.MsSql2000Dialect" ); cfg.Properties.Add( Environment.MaxFetchDepth, "-1" ); // allows for unlimited outer joins (recommeded value is maximum 4 cfg.Properties.Add( Environment.ConnectionString, "Server=xxxx;initial catalog=xxx;User Id=yyyy;Password=xxx" ); // here we add all the needed assemblies that contain mappings or objects cfg.AddAssembly( Assembly.LoadFrom( "MyAssembly.dll" ) );


Can anyone help me with this?
