Hi Falk,
my every-day sermon is to use Guids as primary keys.
Having said that, you simply add a handler to the IdGenerationEvent and use ADO.NET to fetch a unique integer value from the database each time you need one. You might use a special table having only an autoincremented primary key column. If you insert a new row into this table you get back a new id. I recommend to set the autoincrement value to 10-100 to avoid roundtrips for each and every object you create. Fetch a new id and use the next 10 or 100 values starting from the new id.
I hope that helps.
Best Regards:Mirko
