Hi,

Thanks for a great tool.

I'm in the process of switching from classic hbm-mapping to automapping.

I have an issue with read only properties, that aren't id:s. It seems the GetAccessStrategyForReadOnlyProperty method is not called for regular properties.

I have some properties that I absolutely want to keep read only, how can this be achieved with automapping?

   I solved this by adding a convention:

   public class ReadOnlyConvention : IPropertyConvention
   

   {
       public void Apply(IPropertyInstance instance)
       {
           if (instance.Property.IsProperty && !instance.Property.CanWrite)
               instance.Access.CamelCaseField(FluentNHibernate.Conventions.Inspections.CamelCasePrefix.Underscore);
       }
   }
   

   But I would be much happier if the PropertyStep.GetPropertyMapping method called the GetAccessStrategyForReadOnlyProperty method in the IAutomappingConfiguration. That would save me a convention and I wouldn't repeat myself.
