We are working with a legacy database that uses SQL server uniqueidentifier columns for concurrency hence we need to use a Guid as a version column. Any idea how we could achieve this in NHibernate?

We’re currently defining our mapping using Fluent NHibernate as a Guid typed property called ConcurrencyId using this snippet

Version(x => x.ConcurrencyId)

This results in the following error when creating a session

System.InvalidCastException : Unable to cast object of type 'NHibernate.Type.GuidType' to type 'NHibernate.Type.IVersionType'.

Any ideas on how this could be done, fluently or otherwise would be appreciated. We’re happy to hack the source if it can be made to work.

    You could try implementing a custom type implementing NHibernate.UserTypes.IUserVersionType. (I think this suggestion may pertain to a newer version of NHibernate than you are using.)
