Chad Myers explains how to map and work with one-to-many relationships in NHibernate, using a Customer and its SalesOrderHeader as an example, and outlines the best ways to choose and configure collection types (bag, set, list, map, array) for OTM relationships. He covers bi-directional mappings with inverse, how to persist and synchronize in-memory collections, and the role of lazy loading, cascading, and performance considerations (batching, ordering, and filtering) in real-world use, while hinting at more advanced topics to come.
