    <p>Can I do nested transactions in NHibernate, and how do I implement them? I'm using SQL Server 2008, so support is definitely in the DBMS.</p> <p>I find that if I try something like this:</p> <pre><code>using (var outerTX = UnitOfWork.Current.BeginTransaction()) { using (var nestedTX = UnitOfWork.Current.BeginTransaction()) { ... do stuff nestedTX.Commit(); } outerTX.Commit(); } </code></pre> <p>then by the time it comes to <code>outerTX.Commit()</code> the transaction has become inactive, and results in a ObjectDisposedException on the session AdoTransaction.</p> <p>Are we therefore supposed to create nested NHibernate sessions instead? Or is there some other class we should use to wrap around the transactions (I've heard of TransactionScope, but I'm not sure what that is)?</p> <p>I'm now using <a href="https://rhino-tools.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/rhino-tools/trunk/commons/Rhino.Commons.NHibernate/UnitOfWork/UnitOfWork.cs" rel="noreferrer">Ayende's UnitOfWork implementation</a> (thanks Sneal).</p> <p>Forgive any naivety in this question, I'm still new to NHibernate.</p> <p>Thanks!</p> <p><strong>EDIT</strong>: I've discovered that you can use TransactionScope, such as:</p> <pre><code>using (var transactionScope = new TransactionScope()) { using (var tx = UnitOfWork.Current.BeginTransaction()) { ... do stuff tx.Commit(); } using (var tx = UnitOfWork.Current.BeginTransaction()) { ... do stuff tx.Commit(); } transactionScope.Commit(); } </code></pre> <p>However I'm not all that excited about this, as it locks us in to using SQL Server, and also I've found that if the database is remote then you have to worry about having MSDTC enabled... one more component to go wrong. Nested transactions are so useful and easy to do in SQL that I kind of assumed NHibernate would have some way of emulating the same...</p>

    2. CO@user281180, sort of. I've found no way to actually do them, but you can approximate the experience. Have blogged about it here: http://blog.constructionhive.com/2010/07/22/nested-transactions-and-nhibernate/

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
