This is trying to insert null into Comment.BlogArticleID.
The following GenericADOException appeared:
“could not insert: [NHibernate__OneToMany.BO.Comment][SQL: INSERT INTO Comment (Name) VALUES (?); select SCOPE_IDENTITY()]”
The following Inner-Exception appeared:
“Cannot insert the value NULL into column ‘BlogArticleID’, table ‘Relationships_Test_OneToMany.dbo.Comment’; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.\r\nThe statement has been terminated.”
I need a unidirectional mapping. The answer provided yet is talking about bi-directional mapping.
Does NHibernate cascade save works with native ID generator?
DB tables:
BlogArticle{ID, Name}, where in case of ID, Identitity=true.
Comment{ID, Name, BlogArticleID}, where in case of ID, Identitity=true.

The key column of the associated class (Comment.BlogArticleID) must be nullable in the database. NHibernate will insert rows leaving this column NULL and then perform an update to set the key.
Adding not-null=”true” to the key element would not work, as this attribute is only used by the schema export tool.
Note that the failing insert includes a select for the generated identity for the new child row.
