Fluent Nhibernate table-per-subclass with discriminator strategy

Question

Is there anyway to use fluent in order to implement the table-per-subclass with discriminator strategy? From all of the documentation I've seen, the use of a discriminator actually tells fluent to use the table-per-class rather than table-per-subclass.

Answer 1

I am having a similar issue. So far the only option i have been able to think of is to put a property on the base class and have its set operation protected. Then any class that inherits the base, sets that property in its constructor. So far i have not found a better way.

in my case i have a class that references the base class and i want to query the type of subclass in that reference and filter on it in a query but found no way apart from what i just suggested.

Answer 2

If you have 1 table for each subclass then isn't the discriminator the name of the table... In other words you don't need to specify a discriminator if there is only 1 type per table.
