Question

In order to use my Fluent NHibernate mappings on SQL Azure, I need to have a clustered index on every table. The default heap tables that Fluent NHibernate creates for many-to-many joins obviously don’t do this as they don’t have primary keys.

I want to be able to tell one side of the relationship to create a clustered index for its join table, but I’m not sure how. Here’s what my mappings look like:

 public class UserMap : ClassMap<User>{
    public UserMap()
    {
        Table("Users");
        Id(x => x.UserId).GeneratedBy.Identity().Column("UserId");
        Map(x => x.UserName).Unique().Not.Nullable().Length(DataConstants.UserNameLength).Column("UserName");
        Map(x => x.Email).Unique().Not.Nullable().Length(DataConstants.EmailAddressLength).Column("Email");
        Map(x => x.Password).Not.Nullable().Length(DataConstants.PasswordHashLength).Column("Password");
        HasMany(x => x.Clicks).Cascade.AllDeleteOrphan();
        HasManyToMany(x => x.Roles).Cascade.SaveUpdate().Table("UsersInRole").ParentKeyColumn("UserId").
            ChildKeyColumn("RoleId");

    }
}

Please let me know if you need any more information!

I don’t know if Fluent supports it directly (if not, just include the xml), but you can do it with Auxiliary Database Objects

<nhibernate-mapping>
  <database-object>
    <create>create clustered index ix on UsersInRole(UserId, RoleId)</create>
    <drop>drop index UsersInRole.ix</drop>
  </database-object>
</nhibernate-mapping>
