Is possible to map a raw sql to an entity with NHibernate?
Like the following:
C# entity:
public virtual IList<Result> MyResult { get; set; }
Hbm.xml:
<bag name="MyResult">
<my-custom-sql type="Result">
SELECT * FROM ResultTable where MyComplexCondition = true
</my-custom-sql>
</bag>
Result has it own hbm.xml. Is possible to do what I want to achieve?
There is a feature, called <subselect>
. See more here
How to map an NHibernate entity to a query
That could be applied on <class>
as well as on <bag>
. This could be the way how to use it on a bag for MyEntity
which has collection of Languages
<bag name="Languages" lazy="true" batch-size="25"
mutable="false" >
<subselect>
SELECT MyEntity_ID, Language_ID, IsNative FROM Languages
</subselect>
<key column="MyEntity_ID" />
<composite-element class="Language">
<parent name="MyEntity"/>
<many-to-one not-null="true" name="Language" class="Language" column="Language_ID" />
<property not-null="true" name="IsNative" column="IsNative"/>
</composite-element>
</bag>
This of course, should be used for readonly (immutable) solutions
