I have a database (which I can not modify) with 6 tables in Oracle 11g. All tables have a OID artificial column for ID, and its type is RAW(16). The DBA answered me that they are in raw and not in integer because this way the IDs will be unique in all six tables - and we must guarantee that.
I'm developing the UI in C# and for data layer I'm (trying) to use NHibernate. How can I implement the ID generator in a way that attends this necessities?
Thanks very much,
Pedro Dusso
My map is:
<hibernate-mapping xmlns="urn:nhibernate-mapping-2.2">
<class name="MetaManager.Data.Job,MetaManager.Data" table="JOB" lazy="true">
<id name="Oid" column="OID" type="Guid">
<generator class="guid.comb" />
</id>
<property name="JobId" type="Decimal">
<column name="JOB_ID" length="10" sql-type="number" not-null="true" />
</property>
<bag name="EtlProcesses" inverse="true" cascade="all-delete-orphan">
<key column="JOB_ID"/>
<one-to-many class="MetaManager.Data.EtlProcess,MetaManager.Data"/>
</bag>
</class>
</hibernate-mapping>
And my class code is:
namespace MetaManager.Data
{
public class Job
{
public virtual Guid Oid { get; set; }
public virtual decimal JobId { get; set; }
private IList<EtlProcess> _EtlProcesses;
public virtual IList<EtlProcess> EtlProcesses
{
get
{
if (_EtlProcesses == null)
_EtlProcesses = new List<EtlProcess>();
return _EtlProcesses;
}
set
{
_EtlProcesses = value;
}
}
}
}
I'm creating a Job object and them trying to save it in the database. The catch of try
Job job = new Job(1, "Test Job", DateTime.Now, DateTime.MaxValue, "A", "Dusso");
Guid retVal;
ITransaction transaction = null;
try
{
transaction = Session.BeginTransaction();
Session.SaveOrUpdate(job);
if (transaction != null && transaction.IsActive)
transaction.Commit(); //the exception is trow here!
else
Session.Flush();
retVal = job.Oid;
}
catch(Exception ex)
{...}
The complete exception is:
{System.InvalidCastException: Failed to convert parameter value from a Guid to a Byte[]. ---> System.InvalidCastException: Object must implement IConvertible. at System.Convert.ChangeType(Object value, Type conversionType, IFormatProvider provider) at System.Data.OracleClient.OracleParameter.CoerceValue(Object value, MetaType destinationType) --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at System.Data.OracleClient.OracleParameter.CoerceValue(Object value, MetaType destinationType) at System.Data.OracleClient.OracleParameter.SetCoercedValueInternal(Object value, MetaType metaType) at System.Data.OracleClient.OracleParameterBinding.PrepareForBind(OracleConnection connection, Int32& offset) at System.Data.OracleClient.OracleCommand.Execute(OciStatementHandle statementHandle, CommandBehavior behavior, Boolean needRowid, OciRowidDescriptor& rowidDescriptor, ArrayList& resultParameterOrdinals) at System.Data.OracleClient.OracleCommand.ExecuteNonQueryInternal(Boolean needRowid, OciRowidDescriptor& rowidDescriptor) at System.Data.OracleClient.OracleCommand.ExecuteNonQuery() at NHibernate.AdoNet.AbstractBatcher.ExecuteNonQuery(IDbCommand cmd) at NHibernate.AdoNet.NonBatchingBatcher.AddToBatch(IExpectation expectation) at NHibernate.Persister.Entity.AbstractEntityPersister.Insert(Object id, Object[] fields, Boolean[] notNull, Int32 j, SqlCommandInfo sql, Object obj, ISessionImplementor session) at NHibernate.Persister.Entity.AbstractEntityPersister.Insert(Object id, Object[] fields, Object obj, ISessionImplementor session) at NHibernate.Action.EntityInsertAction.Execute() at NHibernate.Engine.ActionQueue.Execute(IExecutable executable) at NHibernate.Engine.ActionQueue.ExecuteActions(IList list) at NHibernate.Engine.ActionQueue.ExecuteActions() at NHibernate.Event.Default.AbstractFlushingEventListener.PerformExecutions(IEventSource session) at NHibernate.Event.Default.DefaultFlushEventListener.OnFlush(FlushEvent event) at NHibernate.Impl.SessionImpl.Flush() at NHibernate.Transaction.AdoTransaction.Commit() at MetaManager.Data.Services.JobDataControl.Save(Job job) in C:\Users\Pedro_Dusso\documents\visual studio 2010\Projects\MetaManager\MetaManager.Data\Services\JobDataControl.cs:line 45}
And sincerely I don't understand your first suspicious. In the database, I have a JOB table and a ETL_PROCESS table. Their relationship is like 1:n, a JOB can have many etl processes.
PS.: I'm adding my nhibernate configuration, maybe it help.
