How do I get the entity type on an object that may be a NHibernate proxy object?

Question

I have a base class DomainObject for all my business objects I am using with NHibernate. It contains the Id property.

public abstract          


        

Answer 1

i took a different aproach in a production project. I simply have a global HiLow Id-Generator which generates Id's unique for all types then i can:

// in DomainEntity
public override bool Equals(object obj)
{
    var other = obj as DomainEntity;
    if (Id == 0) // IsTransient()
        return ReferenceEquals(this, other);
    else
        return (other != null) && (Id == other.Id);
}

// Comparer
bool IEqualityComparer.Equals(object x, object y)
{
    return object.Equals(x, y);
}
