my issue lokks similar to this one: (link)
but i have one-to-many association:
<set name="Fields" cascade="all-delete-orphan" lazy="false" inverse="true">
<key column="[TEMPLATE_ID]"></key>
<one-to-many class="MyNamespace.Field, MyLibrary"/>
</set>
(i also tried to use )
this mapping is for Template object. this one and the Field object has their ID generators set to identity.
so when i call session.Update for the Template object it works fine, well, almost:
if the Field object has an Id number, UPDATE sql request is called, if the Id is 0, the INSERT is performed. But if i delete a Field object from the collection it has no effect for the Database. I found that if i also call session.Delete for this Field object, everything will be ok, but due to client-server architecture i don't know what to delete.
so i decided to delete all the collection elements from the DB and call session.Update with a new collection. and i've got an issue: nhibernate performs the UPDATE operation for the Field objects that has non-zero Id, but they are removed from DB!
maybe i should use some other Id generator or smth..
what is the best way to make nhibernate perform "delete all"/"insert all" routine for the collection?
