How to match many-to-many triple relationships in NHibernate?

Question

Trying to create a many-to-many-many association.

What I still know:

namespace com.example // Assembly = com.example
{

    public class Foo
    {
        public virtual long Id { get; set; }
        public virtual IDictionary<string, ISet<PersistentClass>> MappedCollections { get; set; }
    }

    public class PersistentClass
    {
        public virtual long Id { get; protected set; }
        public virtual string Prop { get; set; }
    }
}

and this is my mapping:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<hibernate-mapping xmlns="urn:nhibernate-mapping-2.2">

  <class name="com.example.Foo, com.example">
    <id name="Id" type="Int64" generator="hilo" />
    <map name="MappedCollections">
      <key column="Id" />
      <index column="Key" type="String" />
      <many-to-many class="com.example.PersistentClass, com.example" />
    </map>
  </class>

  <class name="com.example.PersistentClass, com.example">
    <id name="Id" type="Int64" generator="hilo" />
    <property name="Prop" />
  </class>

</hibernate-mapping>

Creating a schema generates the following SQL (SqlServer example):

if exists (select 1 from sys.objects where object_id = OBJECT_ID(N'[FKC8D94E45A4783B9]') AND parent_object_id = OBJECT_ID('MappedCollections'))
alter table MappedCollections  drop constraint FKC8D94E45A4783B9


if exists (select 1 from sys.objects where object_id = OBJECT_ID(N'[FKC8D94E46534DBE0]') AND parent_object_id = OBJECT_ID('MappedCollections'))
alter table MappedCollections  drop constraint FKC8D94E46534DBE0


if exists (select * from dbo.sysobjects where id = object_id(N'Foo') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsUserTable') = 1) drop table Foo

if exists (select * from dbo.sysobjects where id = object_id(N'MappedCollections') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsUserTable') = 1) drop table MappedCollections

if exists (select * from dbo.sysobjects where id = object_id(N'PersistentClass') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsUserTable') = 1) drop table PersistentClass

if exists (select * from dbo.sysobjects where id = object_id(N'hibernate_unique_key') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsUserTable') = 1) drop table hibernate_unique_key

create table Foo (
    Id BIGINT not null,
   primary key (Id)
)

create table MappedCollections (
    Id BIGINT not null,
   elt BIGINT not null,
   Key NVARCHAR(255) not null,
   primary key (Id, Key) -- !! WRONG !! should be unique (Id, elt, Key)
)

create table PersistentClass (
    Id BIGINT not null,
   Prop NVARCHAR(255) null,
   primary key (Id)
)

alter table MappedCollections 
    add constraint FKC8D94E45A4783B9 
    foreign key (elt) 
    references PersistentClass

alter table MappedCollections 
    add constraint FKC8D94E46534DBE0 
    foreign key (Id) 
    references Foo

create table hibernate_unique_key (
     next_hi BIGINT 
)

insert into hibernate_unique_key values ( 1 )

Any idea what I'm doing wrong? From our SQL we can see that it is saved as IDictionary<string, PersistentClass>instead of IDictionary<string, ISet<PersistentClass>; I do not want the many-to-many relationship Footo many pairs of a class stringand Persistentwhere the pair is unique to each Foo. All three values ​​must create a unique value.

How can i do this?

(note: I have included Hibernate tags because the xml mappings for this relationship must be the same, be it Hibernate or NHibernate)

namespace com.example // Assembly = com.example
{

    public class Foo
    {
        public virtual long Id { get; set; }

        public virtual ReadOnlyDictionary<string, ISet<PersistentClass>> MappedCollections 
        { 
            get 
            { 
                return new ReadOnlyDictionary<string, ISet<PersistentClass>>(_mc); 
            } 
        }

        protected virtual IDictionary<string, PersistentClassSet> _mc { get; set; }
        public virtual void InitializeCollection(string key)
        {
            if (!_mk.ContainsKey(key))
                _mc[key] = new PersistentClassSet();
        }
    }

    public class PersistentClass
    {
        public virtual long Id { get; protected set; }
        public virtual string Prop { get; set; }
    }

    internal class PersistentClassSet : ISet<PersisitentClass>
    {
        public PersistentClassSet()
        {
            Proxy = new HashSet<PersistentClass>();
        }

        protected virtual long Id { get; set; }
        protected virtual ISet<PersistentClass> Proxy { get; set; }

        public bool Add(PersistentClass item)
        {
            return Proxy.Add(item);
        }

        // other ISet implementations delegated to Proxy 
    }
}

, Product {productid, name) Bundle {bundleid, name}. Product bundle - . BundleProduct {BundleId, ProductId}. Nhibernate -

ProductMap
{
  HasManyToMany(x => x.Bundles).Table("BundleProduct").ParentKeyColumn("ProductId").ChildKeyColumn("BundleId").Cascade.None().Inverse().Not.LazyLoad();
}
BundleMap
{
   HasManyToMany(x => x.Products)
                .Table("BundleProduct")
                .ParentKeyColumn("BundleId")
                .ChildKeyColumn("ProductId")
                .Cascade.All();
}
