What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Initialize Nhibernate and NHibernate validator in global.asax 2. In NHibernate validator configuration try to implement CustomMessageInterpolator 3. Try to change validation messages

What is the expected output? What do you see instead? Validation message changes. I see default error messages.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? SharpArchitecture_1.0.48.410_RC2. Windows Vista

As I found out it happens because of class Validator. In constructor new instance of validation engine created. This new instance has its own (default) settings, not the same as configured in xml file.

To fix this error I have added static field to NHibernateSession where validator engine is placed after configuration. It fixes the problem.

Could you please provide a patch and more details concerning the limitations that you're running into?

Here is a patch that solves the problem.

When you are creating new instance of validatorEngine in the Validator class it is not configured and has default property values.

Thanks for the fix...that'll work nicely! I've applied it locally and will have it included in the next check-in (which should be 1.0 RTM).
