How to get runtime class mapping information in Nhibernate?

Question

Where does NHibernate store runtime matching information and how to get it? I need to get association properties (complex properties) for a given mapped class at runtime. And I cannot rely on reading hbm files, because mapping can be done in fluent nhibernate.

Yes. You can use ISessionFactory.GetClassMetadatato get a metadata object for each type of persistant.
