NHibernate QueryOver Where with internal select - nhibernate

Question

I have a problem with translating this SQL into QueryOver notation. Can you help me?
SELECT * FROM Alerts a
WHERE a.CreatedOn = (
SELECT MAX(b.CreatedOn) FROM Alerts b WHERE b.UserFk=a.UserFk);
I try to select last alert for every user. I use CreatedOn and cannot use Id.
I have so far:
session.QueryOver(() => alertAlias)
.SelectList(list => list
.Select(() => alertAlias.User.Id)
.SelectSubQuery(
QueryOver.Of<Alerts>()
.Where(x => x.User.Id == alertAlias.User.Id)
.OrderBy(x => x.CreatedOn).Desc
.Select(x => x.CreatedOn)
.Take(1)));
I know it adds user's last alert date to every user's alert row. But I want to have only last alerts.

Your attempt is using subquery inside of a SELECT statement. But we need to move it into WHERE. This should be the way:
// this is a subquery (SELECT ....
var subquery = QueryOver.Of<Alerts>()
.Where(x => x.User.Id == alertAlias.User.Id)
.OrderBy(x => x.CreatedOn).Desc
.Select(x => x.CreatedOn)
.Take(1)));
// main Query could now have or do not have that subquery selected
var query = session.QueryOver(() => alertAlias)
.SelectList(list => list
.Select(() => alertAlias.User.Id)
// could be there
.SelectSubQuery(subquery)
)
// but mostly here we do use WHERE clause
.WithSubquery
.WhereProperty(() => alertAlias.CreatedOn)
.Eq(subquery)
;
// such a query could be returned as a list of arrays
var results = query.List<object[]>();
We can also use some Result Transformer, but this is another story...
