Fluent API - per-class configuration and context

[jc mag]

I was trying your per-class configuration example (http://www.telerik.com/help/openaccess-orm/fluent-mapping-integration-enhancer-per-class-configuration.html); and you said:
"The benefit in this case is that you are not obligated to create a class that derives from FluentMetadataSource and to override the abstract PrepareMapping method"

But then, how should I update my FluentContext class? If I have no MetadataSource class what should I pass in the constructor?

public class FluentContext : OpenAccessContext
    {
        //static MyFluentMetadataSource metadataSource = new MyFluentMetadataSource();
        static BackendConfiguration backendConfiguration = new BackendConfiguration()
        {
            Backend = "mssql"
        };

        private const string DbConnection = "ConnectionString";

        public FluentContext()
            : base(DbConnection, backendConfiguration, ??)
        {

        }

Hello Jc Mag,

 Unfortunately this seems to be an error in the documentation, you still need to create and implement the abstract FluentMetadataSource. The PrepareMapping you have to override should just return an empty list. With this setup, during runtime the mapping will be collected from all of the classes having a static method that returns a MappingConfiguration. 

We will be updating the help topic immediately. Thank you for noticing this error. 

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,

It seems the online documentation has not been updated yet.
I spent several hours only for this...
