Hi,
I aked the same on StackOverflow and was directed here.
is there a way in fluent to specify

 <composite-id>
    [..]
    <key-property name="someStringProperty" 
             column="somefield" 
             type="AnsiString" 
             lenght="8"/>
 </composite-id>

I'd be willing to contribute, but at first glance I think I'd need a pointer around.

Yours,
Nils

   Well, for "type" I modified FluentNHibernate.Mapping.KeyPropertyPart and replaced the Type() method to look like this:
   

       public KeyPropertyPart Type(Type type)
       {
           return this.Type(type.FullName);
       }
   
       public KeyPropertyPart Type<TTargetType>()
       {            
           return this.Type(typeof(TTargetType));
       }
   
       public KeyPropertyPart Type(string type)
       {
           mapping.Type = new TypeReference(type);
           return this;
       }

   This makes it possible to write
   

    CompositeId()
         .KeyProperty(
              p => p.SomeProp, 
              k => k.ColumnName("someField").Type("AnsiString"))

   I'm not sure how to add the length property, though.

   My dev branch now has support for this:
   http://github.com/paulbatum/fluent-nhibernate/tree/dev

   <http://github.com/paulbatum/fluent-nhibernate/tree/dev>It should be in the
   official trunk before long.

   Nice.
   I tried adding Length, but couldn't get it to output ;-)
   I'll have a look at the commit to make out my errors...
   Is there a reason why You have no generic overload for Type?
   IMO the generic overloads read a bit nicer...

   Oh, no reason, I guess I just forgot to add it.
