Are there any best practices for a deep initialization of an object with several collections and several single associations.

After the initialization I would like to access the collections and associations through the root object.

As a further restriction I only want to extract elements from CollectionA where some criterias are true?

So after initialization I would lke to do the following in a disconnected manner (Session is closed)

ClassA.CollectionA[]
ClassA.CollectionB[]
ClassA.ClassB


How do I initialize ClassA to obtain this. Its for a windows application.

Collections can be initialized with NHibernateUtil.Initialize(ClassA.-collection-).
As I know, you don't need to initialize ClassA.ClassB to use it without session.

I think it is not possible to initialize only a part of collecion - maybe you can try session.Filter to get "detached" list of objects from collection.
