NHibernate 3.1.0.4000 QueryOver SQL Optimisation - sql

Question

I have Entity 'Content'. Each Content has a 'Placement' property. Placement has a many-to-many relationship width 'AdType' entity (Placement has IList<\AdType> property mapped).
I need to load all Placements that are used at least in one Content and associated width specified AdType.
My DAL function looks like this:
public IList<Placement> Load(AdType adType)
{
return NHibernateSession.QueryOver<Content>()
.JoinQueryOver(content => content.Placement)
.JoinQueryOver<AdType>(placement => placement.AdTypes)
.Where(_adType => _adType.Id == adType.Id)
.Select(x => x.Placement).List<Placement>();
}
This works fine but when I look to the SQL log i see:
SELECT this_.PlacementId as y0_ FROM AdManager.dbo.[Content] this_ inner join AdManager.dbo.[Placement] placement1_ on this_.PlacementId=placement1_.PlacementId inner join AdManager.dbo.AdTypeToPlacement adtypes5_ on placement1_.PlacementId=adtypes5_.PlacementId inner join AdManager.dbo.[AdType] adtype2_ on adtypes5_.AdTypeId=adtype2_.AdTypeId WHERE adtype2_.AdTypeId = #p0
SELECT placement0_.PlacementId as Placemen1_26_0_, placement0_.Name as Name26_0_ FROM AdManager.dbo.[Placement] placement0_ WHERE placement0_.PlacementId=#p0
SELECT placement0_.PlacementId as Placemen1_26_0_, placement0_.Name as Name26_0_ FROM AdManager.dbo.[Placement] placement0_ WHERE placement0_.PlacementId=#p0
This means that NHibernate takes all placements Id in first query and then queries all fields from Placement table by Id.
My question is: Does enyone know how to modify QueryOver method to force NHibernate load data in one query?

Answer 1

it seems NHibernate does think there might be something in the where which maybe filters out data which is needed tro initialize the placement. You can go with a subquery:
public IList<Placement> Load(AdType adType)
{
var subquery = QueryOver.For<Content>()
.JoinQueryOver(content => content.Placement)
.JoinQueryOver<AdType>(placement => placement.AdTypes)
.Where(_adType => _adType.Id == adType.Id)
.Select(x => x.Id);
return NHibernateSession.QueryOver<Content>()
.WithSubquery.Where(content => content.Id).IsIn(subquery))
//.Fetch(x => x.Placement).Eager try with and without
.Select(x => x.Placement).List<Placement>();
}
or SQL (has the disadvantage that it just fills the new Placement but doest track it)
public IList<Placement> Load(AdType adType)
{
return NHibernateSession.CreateSQLQuery("SELECT p.Name as Name, ... FROM content c join placement p...")
.SetResultTransformer(Transformers.AliastoBean<Placement>())
.List<Placement>();
}
