Hi, I'm having trouble getting proxies to work:

Say I have a Grandparent/Parent/Children relationship, when I load a parent then lazy loading works in that Children are not retrieved until I access a child, but proxies dont seem to work as I am getting the Grandparent fully populated.

So far I have:

1. Ensured that all properties and methods are marked as virtual
2. Ensured that I am not using access.field
3. Ensured that I am using session.Load instead of session.Get

Am I supposed to do anything else explicitly??

Thanks in advance,

Adam.

The obvious question is: Is GrandParent marked as Lazy?
About your "2.", do you mean that you are accessing GrandParent? (it would require its loading...)

Note that your "3." is not required.

Can you post the code you are executing and how you know that GrandParent is not lazy?

Have you marked the <class> with lazy="true"?

Hi,

I had missed setting Lazy="true" on the class, that fixed it.

KPixel - I am still finding that if I do a session.Load I get a proxy returned, whereas if I do a session.Get, I get the real object immediately.

Is there a mechanism to choose whether I return a proxy or not at runtime? (I guess using session.Get or session.Load is an approach...)

Thanks,

Adam.

Hey Adam11235,

Thay is, in fact, the prescribed approach!

Cheers,
