Hi!

I'm having two classes:

Template
TemplatedView

TemplatedView holds an objectref to Template. If I change some properties on a TemplatedView-instance and also update a property on it's Template-instance (see below) and pass the TemplateView-instance to NHibernate for update, the Template-instance is also updated. Is there anyway to get rid of this behavior? Tried insert=false and update=false (see below).

TemplateView view = new TemplatedView();
view.Template.Name = "Test";
view.Alias = "FridayVw";

session.Update(view); //I don't want to persist changes made to contained objects, in example: view.Template
session.Flush();

<many-to-one name="Template" column="Rel_Template" class="Template" not-null="false" insert="false" update="false" cascade="none" />

Hi,
try it with inverse="true":

so inverse isn't a option.

cascade="none" should do the job. If it's still saved/updated, then the template object is probably already in the session. In that case either clear the session before save/update or evict the object from the session.

Hi!

Is there a way to easily retrieve automatically evicted objects, or do you have to explicitly call evict for each object?

Not that I know of, but you could load these objects in a different session which is closed or cleared after loading.

It indicates that the porblem is here;
<many-to-one name="Template" column="Rel_Template" class="Template" not-null="false" insert="false" update="false" cascade="none" />
