Question

We are using Fluent NH with convention based mapping. I have the following:

public class Foo() : Entity
{
  public BarComponent PrimaryBar { get; set; }
  public BarComponent SecondaryBar { get; set; }
}

public class BarComponent
{
  public string Name { get; set; }
}

I have it to the point where it will create the foo table with a single name field. I’ve tried the following Override and it doesn’t work.

  public class FooOverride : IAutoMappingOverride<Foo>
    {
        public void Override(AutoMapping<Foo> mapping)
        {
            mapping.Component(x => x.PrimaryBar).ColumnPrefix("primary");
            mapping.Component(x => x.SecondaryBar).ColumnPrefix("secondary");
        }
    }

Do I really need to do a full override mapping or can what I have here be made to work somehow?

Answer 1

I ended up getting the way I have described in the question working. It turned out to be a problem with our AutoMappingConfiguration which inherits from DefaultAutomappingConfiguration. We weren’t identifying Components properly.
