Is it possible to set a default value on a property with NHibernate
I'm using Fluent NHibernate for my mappings and the SchemaExport class to the database schema.
Is it possible with NHibernate to set a default value for a property/column in the generated database schema?

It is definitely supported, both in XML mapping and in Fluent NHibernate.
- For XML mapping, use the
<column>child element of<property>, documented here. - For Fluent NHibernate, there's a method for fluent mapping, as described in this SO answer.

Not to my knowledge, no - not in the generated schema.
You can just set the property in your constructor though.
