Does anyone know why NHibernate generates a field named ‘elt’ of type int for a many to many mapping? I’m wondering why I need it. Thanks

The ‘elt’ field is the foreign key to the element in the many-to-many mapping. In the join table, you should see two foreign key columns, id (for the parent) and elt (for the element). You can use different names if you like; these are defaults.
