[nhibernate-development] Refresh - cascade

[Dawid]

It would seem as if the general answer is that you can't "cascade
Refresh" a collection. And that the "cascade" option should exclude
this.

I've written the following code, and it seems to work just fine to
prepare a collection for a "cascade" refresh:

    private void RemoveTransientsFromList(IList list)
    {
      if (list == null || list.Count == 0) return;
      var i = 0;
      while (i < list.Count)
      {
        var metaData = (IEntityPersister)
Session.SessionFactory.GetClassMetadata(list[0].GetType());
        if (metaData.IsTransient(list[i],
Session.GetSessionImplementation()) == true)
          list.RemoveAt(i);
        else
          i++;
      }
    }

    public void Refresh(T entity)
    {
      var metadata = Session.SessionFactory.GetClassMetadata
(entity.GetType());

      var propertyValues = metadata.GetPropertyValues(entity,
EntityMode.Poco);
      var propertyTypes = metadata.PropertyTypes;

      for (var i = 0; i < propertyTypes.Length; i++)
      {
        if (propertyTypes[i].IsCollectionType)
          RemoveTransientsFromList((IList)propertyValues[i]);
      }
      Session.Refresh(entity);
    }


Comments? Suggestion?
