Fluent Nhibernate Mapping Single class on two database tables
- by nabeelfarid
Hi guys,
I am having problems with Mapping.
I have two tables in my database as follows: Employee and EmployeeManagers
Employee
EmployeeId int
Name nvarchar
EmployeeManagers
EmployeeIdFk int
ManagerIdFk int
So the employee can have 0 or more Managers. A manager itself is also an Employee.
I have the following class to represent the Employee and Managers
public class Employee
{
public virtual int Id
{
get;
set;
}
public virtual string Name
{
get;
set;
}
public virtual IList<Employee> Managers
{
get;
protected set;
}
public Employee()
{
Managers = new List<Employee>();
}
}
I don't have any class to represent Manager because I think there is no need for it, as Manager itself is an Employee.
I am using autoMapping and I just can't figure out how to map this class to these two tables. I am implementing IAutoMappingOverride for overriding automappings for Employee but I am not sure what to do in it.
public class NodeMap : IAutoMappingOverride
{
public void Override(AutoMapping<Node> mapping)
{
//mapping.HasMany(x => x.ValidParents).Cascade.All().Table("EmployeeManager");
//mapping.HasManyToMany(x => x.ValidParents).Cascade.All().Table("EmployeeManager");
}
}
I also want to make sure that an employee can not be assigned the same manager twice. This is something I can verify in my application but I would like to put constraint on the EmployeeManager table (e.g. a composite key) so a same manager can not be assigned to an employee more than once.
Could anyone out there help me with this please?
Awaiting
Nabeel
