如何在nhibernate中级联删除集合？

Question

I have this mapping

 public class CountryMapping : ClassMap<Country>
    {
        public CountryMapping()
        {
            Id(x => x.Id).GeneratedBy.GuidComb();
            Map(x => x.Name).Not.Nullable().NvarcharWithMaxSize();
            HasMany(x => x.Cards).Cascade.Delete().Inverse();
        }
    }

      public class CardMapping : ClassMap<Card>
    {
        public CardMapping()
        {
            Id(x => x.Id).GeneratedBy.GuidComb();
            Map(x => x.Name).Not.Nullable().NvarcharWithMaxSize(); ;
            References(x => x.Country).Not.Nullable();
            HasMany(x => x.RewardTiers).Cascade.All();
        }
    }

Now I want to delete a country. If you delete a country all the cards should be deleted. It should delete all the rewards.

nhibernateRepo.Load<Country>(countryId);
nhibernateRepo.Delete<Country>(country);
unitOfWork.Commit();

When I do this. I get the following error.

NHibernate.Exceptions.GenericADOException was caught

Why is it trying to do an update when a delete had happened?

Answer 1

It is trying to do an update because it thinks that Card is the "owner" of the Country->Cards association and so when a Country is deleted, NH thinks that it needs to null Country references. This is caused by the Inverse mapping modifier. According to the documentation for Inverse :

Inverse the ownership of this entity. Make the other side of the relationship responsible for saving.

Try removing Inverse from HasMany(x => x.Cards).Cascade.Delete().Inverse();
