Using NHibernate session load method, is there a way to access an entity's id without initializing the proxy? -

according docs, session.load(id)

returns object uninitialized proxy , not hit database ...

this great have scenario want load object (that know exists in db) , later (within same session) access entity's id , id , not have proxy initialized. seems me if access id of proxy, shouldn't have initialized. @ least hoping can't seem work way.

essentially i'm trying following test pass:

[test] public void accessing_loaded_entity_id_should_not_initialize_the_proxy() {     // arrange     var repo = new nhrepository<order>();     var order = new orderbuilder().build();      repo.save(order);     repo.flush();     repo.clear();      // act     var fromdb = repo.load(order.id);      // assert     assert.areequal(order.id, fromdb.id);     assert.isfalse(nhibernateutil.isinitialized(fromdb)); }  

this test fails here:

assert.isfalse(nhibernateutil.isinitialized(fromdb));

update here's hbm mapping of id:

<id name="id" access="field">     <generator class="hilo">         <param name="column">ordernexthi</param>         <param name="max_lo">100</param>     </generator> </id> 

here's base entity type. i'm thinking problem might here copied long time ago , didn't put thought it. let me know think:

public abstract class singleidentitydomainentity<t> t : singleidentitydomainentity<t> {     private readonly int id;     private int? _oldhashcode;      protected singleidentitydomainentity()     {         this.id = 0;         }      public virtual int id     {         { return this.id; }     }      public override bool equals(object obj)     {         var other = obj t;         if (other == null)             return false;          // handle case of comparing 2 new objects         if (other.istransient() && this.istransient())             return referenceequals(other, this);          return other.id.equals(this.id);     }      /// <summary>     /// transient objects not associated item in storage.     /// </summary>     public virtual bool istransient()     {         return this.id == 0;     }      /// <summary>     /// must provided compare 2 objects     /// </summary>     public override int gethashcode()     {         // once have hash code we'll never change         if (_oldhashcode.hasvalue)             return _oldhashcode.value;          // when instance transient, use base gethashcode()         // , remember it, instance can never change hash code.         if (this.istransient())         {             _oldhashcode = base.gethashcode();             return _oldhashcode.value;         }          return this.id.gethashcode();     } } 

i not know implementation of repository think problem in the:

repo.clear(); 

line. guess clears session (all cache values evicted).
