I'm using NHibernate with Mapping by Code and I have a property that is created by this formula. 

Property(x => x.IsInOverdue,
    mapper => mapper
      .Formula("(SELECT (state_ <> 3 AND invoice_uniqueAlias.duedate_ < NOW()) " + 
               " FROM _invoice AS invoice_uniqueAlias  "+ 
               " WHERE invoice_uniqueAlias.invoice_id = issuedinvoice_key)"));

It works perfectly, this sql is inserted as subselect in all queries...

But I would need to add 1 day to invoice_uniqueAlias.duedate_ value. We are using PostgreSQL where the syntax for it is: invoice_uniqueAlias.duedate_ + interval '1 day'

But when I put it in mapper.Formula, NHibernate thinks that interval is a name of column and in all queries tries to add table prefix before interval keyword. The generated SQL then looks like:

... (SELECT (issuedinvo0_.state_ <> 3 
  AND (invoice_uniqueAlias.duedate_ + (issuedinvo0_.interval '1 day')) < NOW()) ...

I tried to put interval keyword in [, `, put statement interval + '1 day' to brackets, but it didn't help. Any suggestions how to handle it correctly in NHibernate or how it is possible to write it in Postgres without using + interval syntax?

In case, we need NHibernate to treat some words (key words) as part of the underlying DB engine dialect, we have to just extend it.

One way would be the create custom dialect:

public class CustomPostgreDialect : PostgreSQL82Dialect
{
    public CustomPostgreDialect()
    {
        RegisterKeyword("interval");
    }
}

And now just use it:

<property name="dialect">My.Namespace.CustomPostgreDialect,My.Data</property>
