session - What's the best way to refresh entities in nhibernate

Question

I would like to refresh an entity and all its child collections. What is the best way to do this? I'm talking about nhibernate:)

I've read about session.Evict, session.Refresh...

But I'm still not sure if doing like:

RefreshEntity<T>(T entity)
{
 session.Evict(entity);
 session.Refresh(entity);
}

would work exactly how I want it to work

Is it going to work? If not What else I can do?

Answer 1

Refresh after Evict probably won't work.

Theoretically, Refresh alone should be enough. However, it has known issues when elements of child collections have been deleted.

Evict followed by Get usually gets things done.
