NPersistence is configured using an XML file called 'persistence.xml'. This file is marked as 'Embedded Resource'.
- Right click on the 'code' folder node, click 'Add -> New Item..'.
- In the opened dialog choose 'XML File', name it 'persistence.xml' and click 'Add'.
- Right click on the 'persistence.xml' file, click 'properties' - the properties view will open.
- In the 'Build Action' property, set the property value to 'Embedded Resource'.
- Open the 'persistence.xml' file and paste the following XML inside it.
