    <p>I'm implementing tagging on a particular entity, using NHibernate on SQL Server 2008. The structure I have now is, simplifying, like this:</p> <pre><code>public class Entity { public Guid Id { get; set; } } public class Tag { public Guid Id { get; set; } public string Name { get; set; } } public class TagAssoc { public Tag LinkedTag { get; set; } public Entity LinkedEntity { get; set; } //User //Other properties } </code></pre> <p>Nothing exotic: an entity can be tagged multiple times with the same tag, since the association also includes data about the user that tagged the entity and other stuff.</p> <p>Now, I'm trying to fetch a list of tags of a particular entity, with the counts of how many times the tag has been applied. Something like this in HQL:</p> <pre><code>select tass.LinkedTag, count(tass.LinkedTag) from TagAssoc as tass left outer join tass.LinkedTag as t group by tass.LinkedTag </code></pre> <p>This generates the following SQL query:</p> <pre><code>select tag1_.Id as Id0_, tag1_.Name as Name0_, tag1_.Id as x0_0_, count_big(tag1_.Id) as x1_0_ from BandTags tagassoc0_ left outer join Tags tag1_ on tagassoc0_.TagId=tag1_.Id group by tag1_.Id </code></pre> <p>This looks correct, but won't work in SQL Server 2008, because the Name property of Tag is not included in a "group by" clause. To make it work, I have to manually adjust the group by clause in order to include all properties of the Tag class:</p> <pre><code>select tass.LinkedTag, count(tass.LinkedTag) from TagAssoc as tass left outer join tass.LinkedTag as t group by tass.LinkedTag.Id, tass.LinkedTag.Name </code></pre> <p>But this depends on the properties of the Tag class and therefore would have to be updated every time the class is changed. Is there some other way to make the first HQL query work? Perhaps some HQL syntax that automatically makes the "group by" properties explicit?</p> <p>Thanks</p>

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.
