Nhibernate Set how to intercept Add() method

Question

I need a solution for this: How to intercept ISet.Add method so I don't need to do children.Parent=parent, but jus parent.Children.Add(children);

public class MyClass
{
public MyClass Parent;
public ISet<MyClass> Childrens;
}

I want to do this:

var mc = new MyClass();
var mc2 = new MyClass();
mc.Childrens.Add(mc2);

and not

var mc = new MyClass();
var mc2 = new MyClass();
mc.Childrens.Add(mc2);
mc2.Parent=mc;

Answer 1

I simply create an AddChild method which does that.

You could also expose the public property as readonly collection as Frederik demonstrates...

Answer 2

public IList<MyClass> Childrens
