Question

HI,

I am implementing a custom role provider in my nhibernate application
I have a repository that I call whenever I want to access the nhibernate session.

So when my role provider initializes itself

public override void Initialize(string name, System.Collections.Specialized.NameValueCollection config) {

            base.Initialize(name, config);
            Repository = new Repository();
        }

Then I override

public override string[] GetRolesForUser(string username) {
        var users = Repository.QueryAll<Users>();

//I then filter and so on

    }

But when this function is called I always get an error that the NHibernate session is closed.
I debugged the nhibernate source code and it turns out that the session here has a different guid that the session in my controllers(I am using ASP.NET MVC also).
And this particular session is closed by the time I get here.
I don’t know who closes it. I know it is started when the application starts and only then.

Does anyone have any idea what I am doing wrong?
I want to still use Nhibernate in this provider but not get the error any more.
Thank you

This is how I evetually fixed it.

in my repository class I had this:

public Repository()
{
    this.Session = SessionManager.GetCurrentSession();
}

I deleted the constructor entirely
I put in this instead:

private ISession _session;
        protected ISession Session
        {
            get
            {
                if (_session == null)
                {
                    _session = SessionManager.GetCurrentSession();
                }
                return _session;
            }
        }
