Hi,
I have an event listener (for Audit Logs) which needs to append audit log entries to the association of the object:
public Company : IAuditable {
// Other stuff removed for bravety
IAuditLog IAuditable.CreateEntry() {
var entry = new CompanyAudit();
this.auditLogs.Add(entry);
return entry;
}
public virtual IEnumerable<CompanyAudit> AuditLogs {
get { return this.auditLogs }
}
}
The AuditLogs collection is mapped with cascading:
public class CompanyMap : ClassMap<Company> {
public CompanyMap() {
// Id and others removed fro bravety
HasMany(x => x.AuditLogs).AsSet()
.LazyLoad()
.Access.ReadOnlyPropertyThroughCamelCaseField()
.Cascade.All();
}
}
And the listener just asks the auditable object to create log entries so it can update them:
internal class AuditEventListener : IPreInsertEventListener, IPreUpdateEventListener {
public bool OnPreUpdate(PreUpdateEvent ev) {
var audit = ev.Entity as IAuditable;
if (audit == null)
return false;
Log(audit);
return false;
}
public bool OnPreInsert(PreInsertEvent ev) {
var audit = ev.Entity as IAuditable;
if (audit == null)
return false;
Log(audit);
return false;
}
private static void LogProperty(IAuditable auditable) {
var entry = auditable.CreateAuditEntry();
entry.CreatedAt = DateTime.Now;
entry.Who = GetCurrentUser(); // Might potentially execute a query.
// Also other information is set for entry here
}
}
The problem with it though is that it throws TransientObjectException when commiting the transaction:
NHibernate.TransientObjectException : object references an unsaved transient instance - save the transient instance before flushing. Type: PropConnect.Model.UserAuditLog, Entity: PropConnect.Model.UserAuditLog

As the cascading is set to All I expected NH to handle this. I also tried to modify the collection using state but pretty much the same happens.
So the question is what is the last chance to modify object's associations before it gets saved?
Thanks,
Dmitriy.
