Smooth NHIBERNATE: Mapping the Valid Value Type Attribute to Components

public struct PersonName
{
 public string FirstName {get; private set; }
 public string LastName {get; private set; }

 public PersonName(string firstName, string lastName)
 {
 FirstName = firstName;
 LastName = lastName; 
 }
}

public class Person
{
 public PersonName? Name {get; set; }
}
< br />public class PersonDbMap: ClassMap
{
 public PersonDbMap()
 {
 /* This part doesn't compile! */
 Component( x => x.Name,
 part =>
 {
 part.Map(x => x.FirstName, "FirstName");
 part.Map(x => x.LastName, "LastName");
 }
 }
}

For example:

public struct PersonName
{
 public string FirstName {get; private set; }
 public string LastName {get; private set; }

 public PersonName(string firstName, string lastName)
 {
 FirstName = firstName;
 LastName = lastName; 
 }
}

public class Person
{
 public PersonName? Name {get; set; }
}
< br />public class PersonDbMap: ClassMap
{
 public PersonDbMap()
 {
 /* This part doesn't compile! */
 Component( x => x.Name,
 part =>
 {
 part.Map(x => x.FirstName, "FirstName");
 part.Map(x => x.LastName, "LastName");
 }
 }
}

It is impossible to map structures to components

You need to set it as a class or implement IUserType.
