I have 2 classes that reference each other. It’s a weird situation that our CRM needs.

I have an Organization and EmAddress tables and classes. The Organization inherits from Subscriber, which also has a table. I think this could be my problem, or the fact that I can’t set Inverse on these because there is no “HasMany”…

The order of insert/update is ..
INSERT Email
INSERT Org
UPDATE Email to set Email.Subscriber

Email.Subscriber needs to be “NOT NULL”, so this doesn’t work. How can I change the order, I can’t use Inverse because there is no list. Just 2 references.

    public class Organization : Subscriber
    {
       public override string Class { get { return "Organization"; } }
       EmAddress PrimaryEmailAddress {get;set;}
    }

    public class OrganizationMap : SubclassMap<Organization>
    {        
      public OrganizationMap()
      {
        Table("Organization");
        KeyColumn("Organization");
        References(x => x.PrimaryEmail,"PrimaryEmailAddress").Cascade.SaveUpdate();
      }
    }

    public EmAddressMap()
    {
        Id(x => x.Id, "EmAddress");
        Map(x => x.EmailAddress, "eMailAddress");
        References<Subscriber>(x => x.Subscriber,"Subscriber").LazyLoad().Fetch.Select().Not.Nullable(); 
        /*not.nullable() throw s error.  NHibernate INSERTS email, INSERTS org, UPDATES email. */
   }

   public class EmAddress
   {
    public virtual Guid Id { get; set; }
    public virtual string EmailAddress { get; set; }
    public virtual Subscriber Subscriber { get; set; }
   }

     //Implementation
     var session = NHIbernateHelper.GetSession();
     using(var tx = session.BeginTransaction())
{
     var org = new Organization();
     org.PrimaryEmail = new EmAddress(){Subscriber = org};
     session.Save(org);
     tx.commit();

}
