Hi all.

How can I map a string (or integer) collection with a one-to-many relationship?

For example, if I have a class like:

class Person {
...
public IList<string> NickNames {
...
}
}

and a table schema like the following:

table person {
ID int,
...
}

table nickNames {
ID int,
PersonID int,
nick varchar(255)
}

can I directly map NickNames Person's property? Or have I to wrap a nickname into a NickName class containing just one string property?

Thanks a lot,
Marcello.

Finally, I figured out how to map value types into collections.
The key is the <element> tag.
The mapping file looks like:

<set name="NickNames" table="NickNames" cascade="all-delete-orphan">
<key column="PersonID"/>
<element type="String" column="nick" not-null="true"/>
</set>

Thanks.
Marcello.
