I m using NHibernate with Burrow and Fluent to shuttle data from SQLServer2005 into a directory full of FoxPro 7 dbf s.
When I try to save a new record through Burrow s GenericDAO, I get an exception that boils down to "Field XXX does not accept null values," where field XXX is a NOT NULL field that is not being mapped at all because it is unimportant and is to be left blank.
I ran into this before when directly using ADO.Net & OleDbConnection s, and found that adding ";NULL=OFF" to the connection string solved the problem.
I ve tried "NULL=OFF", "NULL=NO" in the connection string as well as "VFPOLEDB" & "VFPOLEDB.1" for provider. It still tries to automatically insert NULLs into fields missing from the "INSERT (field1, field2, ...) VALUES (?, ?, ? ...)" statement (i.e., those fields I did not map).
Any ideas?
Here is my fluent config for the FoxPro tables:
string connString = "Provider=VFPOLEDB.1;Data Source="
+ @"D:DocumentsWorkProjectsOurProjectsClientsClient1TestingData"
+ ";NULL=NO;";
Fluently.Configure(nhCfg)
.Database(JetDriverConfiguration.Standard.ConnectionString(connString)
.Dialect<GenericDialect>().Driver<OleDbDriver>())
.Mappings(m => m.FluentMappings.AddFromAssembly(
Assembly.Load("OurProduct.Model, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null")))
.BuildConfiguration();
And the mapping class, the actual table these are being inserted into has a couple dozen unmapped fields, all NOT NULL and they all should be blank on new records:
public class ClientMap : ClassMap<Client>
{
public ClientMap() {
Id(x => x.PersonId).GeneratedBy.Assigned();
Map(x => x.LastName).Length(15);
Map(x => x.FirstName).Length(15);
Map(x => x.MiddleName).Column("midname").Length(1);
Map(x => x.Address1).Length(40);
Map(x => x.Address2).Length(40);
Map(x => x.City).Length(20);
Map(x => x.State).Length(2);
Map(x => x.ZipCode).Length(9);
Map(x => x.Gender).Length(30);
Map(x => x.Ethnicity).Length(30);
Map(x => x.MaritalStatus).Column("marital").Length(30);
Map(x => x.LivingArrangement).Column("livarrange").Length(30);
Map(x => x.PovertyLevel).Column("povlevel").Length(30);
Map(x => x.BirthDate);
Map(x => x.AssessmentNotes).Column("assnotes");
}
}
