ASP.NET MVC 3 and NHibernate Scaffolding

Question

I found this article [http://blog.stevensanderson.com/2011/01/13/scaffold-your-aspnet-mvc-3-project-with-the-mvcscaffolding-package/], which explains how to use MVC Scaffolding with one-to-many relationships in EF to create a listbox with an enumerated collection as the choice.

I tried using this with my project, but I have run into a problem - I don't want to use EF (or include a reference to it). I am using POCOs which are then mapped using a repository pattern and persisted using NHibernate.

Is there a way to create the same scaffolding listboxes for POCOs without having to create the DataContext which the article created.

Edit: I do know how to do this manually, I am looking for a way for the scaffold code to do this for me.

Did you find anything on this? I'm looking for the same and couldn't find anything. Thanks — Guillermo Vasconcelos, Sep 09 '11 at 14:36
No there were no out of the box solutions - I am looking at making some though and I will put them on codeplex if/when. — Darbio, Sep 13 '11 at 08:31
Is there a currently active framework/tool for asp.net scaffolding around an EF or nhibernate object set? I am looking for one... — Jonesome Reinstate Monica, Jul 07 '14 at 05:56

I think the post on Overriding T4 Templates from the same series should tell you all you need to know to switch to a repository template based on NHibernate. If you end up implementing your own, please post them somewhere :)

I'll release them if I get around to making them. Thanks. – Darbio Aug 10 '11 at 04:10
@Macropus did you ever get around to releasing them ? – jamiebarrow Sep 05 '12 at 14:36

I made some very very simple ones but never released them. I will dig them out and see if they are good enough to stick up on GitHub. – Darbio Sep 06 '12 at 00:50

I've seen a project, that tried to implement templates for NHibernate and MVC scaffolding, but according to this thread it seems to be closed.
