Any ideas from anyone?



Hi all,

I have a question regarding subclassing in NHibernate using discriminators. My problem is that the discriminator I need to use is not a simple property of the parent class but rather is a property of one of the many to one properties of the parent class. How can I use a discriminator in this situation.

I can't just say something like <discriminator column="HouseID" /> because House is a many to one property. I need to do something like the following:

<discriminator column="House.ManufacturerID" /> How can I do this?

Can you give us some more information about the domain model ? Normally the descriptor is an "artificial" column which just represents the classes. It's simply a value in the mapping and normaly doesn't appear in your code.
