A Dictionary<key, IList<value>> is not supported in NHibernate I believe. At
least I don't know of any way to map that. What you'd have to do is what you
describe in the second point, which is to have an entity which encompasses
the IList<value>, and then map that as another IList<Entity> from your Post
class.
What is the additional bit of data you're trying to store, at the moment, it
looks like you could resolve your solution without needing the many-to-many
table. Since it's a self join, the Post class itself could hold all of the
Many-To-Many information you needed.
Something like this:
class Post
{
public Post Parent {get;set;}
public IList<Post> Children {get;set;}
}
class PostMap
{
ctor
{
Reference(x=>x.Parent, "ParentPostId").Cascade.SaveUpdate();
HasMany(x=>x.Children,
"ParentPostId").Cascade.AllDeleteOrphan().Inverse()
}
}
Something like that.
But perhaps I'm missing a requirement somewhere for your domain.
