Hello there,
I'm experiment with NHibernate which so far has been a pleasant
experience. However, today I hit a wall.
Easiest way to explain problem is by using an example, so thats what I
will do.

I have a domain object called 'Machine' which has some properties like
this.

Machine
Name
Weight
Height
Length
LocalizedName
LocalizedDescription
CultureCode

As you can see some of the properties are static like height, weight
etc and will most likely never change. Then there are the properties
which are language dependent like the name and description.
Because of this the data model looks a little different and is split
into two tables that looks like this.

Machine
[PK]Name
Weight
Height
Length

LocalizedMachine
[FK]Name
LocalizedName
LocalizedDescription
CultureCode

Even though this is a one-to-many relationship (one machine is called
many different things dependent on the language) I'm only interested
in working with one language at a given time. Therefore I'm not
interested in a collection of LocalizedMachine objects but just the
two strings in the selected language. If I want to change language I
just want to change the CultureCode property. Is it possible to make
such a mapping with NHibernate ?

Thanks in advance
- Christian
