Is it possible to reuse a component mapping in a projection?
Here is the mapping for the Vendor entity:
<class name="Vendor" table="vendor">
...
<property name="Name" column="Name" />
<component name="Address" class="MyProject.Address, MyAssembly" >
<property name="Street" column="street" />
<property name="City" column="City" />
</component>
</class>
For a report I'd like to retrieve these vendors in a data transfer object but reuse the Address component (because there are many fields and some useful formatting behavour).
public class VendorDTO
{
public string Name;
public Address Address;
}
public class Address
{
public string Street;
public string City;
public string SomeUsefulBehavour();
}
Is this possible without splitting Address out into it's own table?
Thanks!
