Fluent Nhibernate - Mapping a list results in NullReferenceException?

问题

I have the following classes and fluent mappings:

  public class A {
    public virtual int Id { get; private set; }
    public virtual string MyString { get; set; }
    public virtual IList<B> MyChildren { get; set; }
 }

  public class B {
    public virtual int Id { get; private set; }
    public virtual DateTime TheDate { get; set; }
  }

  public sealed class AMap : ClassMap<A> {
    public AMap() {
      Id(x => x.Id).GeneratedBy.Native().UnsavedValue(0);
      Map(x => x.MyString);
      HasMany(x => x.MyChildren).AsList(x => x.Column("Ordinal")).KeyColumn("AId").Not.KeyNullable();
    }
  }

  public sealed class BMap : ClassMap<B> {
    public BMap() {
      Id(x => x.Id).GeneratedBy.Native().UnsavedValue(0);
      Map(x => x.TheDate);
    }
  }

This results in the following mapping for A:

  <class xmlns="urn:nhibernate-mapping-2.2" mutable="true" name="A" table="`A`">
    <id name="Id" type="System.Int32, mscorlib, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" unsaved-value="0">
      <column name="Id" />
      <generator class="native" />
    </id>
    <property name="MyString" type="AnsiString">
      <column name="MyString" length="150" not-null="true" />
    </property>
    <list name="MyChildren" mutable="true">
      <key not-null="true">
        <column name="AId" />
      </key>
      <index>
        <column name="Ordinal" />
      </index>
      <one-to-many class="B" />
    </list>
  </class>

But when I actually try to save an instance of A, I get a NullReferenceException:

System.NullReferenceException : Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

at NHibernate.Impl.SessionImpl.FireSave(SaveOrUpdateEvent event)
at NHibernate.Impl.SessionImpl.Save(Object obj)

What am I doing wrong here?

Clarification: This is how I'm using the classes:

var a = new A { MyChildren = new List<B> { new B { TheDate = DateTime.Now } } };
a.MyChildren[0].Parent = a;

session.Save(a);

回答1:

You should add MyChildren = New List<B>(); to your constructor for A

回答2:

Shouldn't your key column be "Id" (as opposed to "AId") for the child collection? I think that this is the source of your problem...

回答3:

I figured this out. The sample above actually does work, but the issue I was trying to reproduce was still running, causing the same error. Sorry about that...

The issue is that we had created this ChildList class, which we returned for the MyChildren property. It simply wrapped the List (or whatever concrete list NHibernate uses for persistent lists), but it took care of setting the Parent property on whatever instance was added or removed from the collection.

Apparently this causes NHibernate problems when saving even a new instance. Returning a normal concrete List works.
