public interface QueryProducer
Contract for things that can produce instances of Query and NativeQuery. Implementors include Session and StatelessSession. Many operations of the interface have the same or very similar signatures to operations of EntityManager. They are declared here to allow reuse by StatelessSession.

Unlike the corresponding operations of EntityManager, operations for creating untyped instances of Query are all marked as deprecated. Clients must migrate to the use of the equivalent operations which accept a Class and return a typed Query.

  • Method Details

    • createQuery

      @Deprecated(since="6.0") Query createQuery(String queryString)
      Deprecated.
      The overloaded form createQuery(String, Class) which takes a result type is strongly recommended in preference to this method, since it returns a typed Query object, and because it is able to use the given result type to infer the select list, and even sometimes the from clause. Alternatively, createSelectionQuery(String, Class) is preferred for queries, and createMutationQuery(String) for insert, update, and delete statements.
      Create a Query instance for the given HQL query, or HQL insert, update, or delete statement.

      If a query has no explicit select list, the select list is inferred:

      • if there is exactly one root entity in the from clause, and it has no non-fetch joins, then that root entity is the only element of the select list, or
      • if there is an entity with the alias this, then that entity is the only element of the select list, or
      • otherwise, the query is considered ambiguous, and this method throws a SemanticException.

      The query must have an explicit from clause, which can never be inferred.

      Parameters:
      queryString - The HQL query
      Returns:
      The Query instance for manipulation and execution
      See Also:
      API Note:
      Returns a raw Query type instead of a wildcard type Query<?>, to match the signature of the JPA method EntityManager.createQuery(String).

    • createQuery

      <R> Query<R> createQuery(String queryString, Class<R> resultClass)
      Create a typed Query instance for the given HQL query string and given query result type.
      • If the query has a single item in the select list, then the select item must be assignable to the given result type.
      • Otherwise, if there are multiple select items, then the select items will be packaged into an instance of the result type. The result type must have an appropriate constructor with parameter types matching the select items, or it must be one of the types Object[], List, Map, or Tuple.

      If a query has no explicit select list, the select list is inferred from the given query result type:

      • if the result type is an entity type, the query must have exactly one root entity in the from clause, it must be assignable to the result type, and the inferred select list will contain just that entity, or
      • otherwise, the select list contains every root entity and every non-fetch joined entity, and each query result will be packaged into an instance of the result type, just as specified above.

      If a query has no explicit from clause, and the given result type is an entity type, the root entity is inferred to be the result type.

      Passing Object.class as the query result type is not recommended. In this special case, this method has the same semantics as the overload createQuery(String).

      The returned Query may be executed by calling Query.getResultList() or Query.getSingleResult().

      Parameters:
      queryString - The HQL query
      resultClass - The Class object representing the query result type, which should not be Object.class
      Returns:
      The Query instance for manipulation and execution

    • createQuery

      <R> Query<R> createQuery(TypedQueryReference<R> typedQueryReference)
      Create a typed Query instance for the given typed query reference.
      Parameters:
      typedQueryReference - the type query reference
      Returns:
      The Query instance for execution
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if a query has not been defined with the name of the typed query reference or if the query result is found to not be assignable to result class of the typed query reference
      See Also:

    • createQuery

      <R> Query<R> createQuery(CriteriaQuery<R> criteriaQuery)

    • createNativeQuery

      <R> NativeQuery<R> createNativeQuery(String sqlString, Class<R> resultClass)
      Create a NativeQuery instance for the given native SQL query using an implicit mapping to the specified Java type.
      • If the given class is an entity class, this method is equivalent to createNativeQuery(sqlString).addEntity(resultClass).
      • If the given class has a registered JavaType, then the query must return a result set with a single column whose JdbcType is compatible with that JavaType.
      • Otherwise, the select items will be packaged into an instance of the result type. The result type must have an appropriate constructor with parameter types matching the select items, or it must be one of the types Object[], List, Map, or Tuple.
      Parameters:
      sqlString - The native (SQL) query string
      resultClass - The Java type to map results to
      Returns:
      The NativeQuery instance for manipulation and execution
      See Also:
      API Note:
      Changes in JPA 3.2 required de-typing this to be compilable with their changes

    • createSelectionQuery

      @Deprecated(since="6.3") SelectionQuery<?> createSelectionQuery(String hqlString)
      Deprecated.
      The overloaded form createSelectionQuery(String, Class) which takes a result type is strongly recommended in preference to this method, since it returns a typed SelectionQuery object, and because it is able to use the given result type to infer the select list, and even sometimes the from clause.
      Create a SelectionQuery reference for the given HQL select statement.

      If the statement has no explicit select list, the select list is inferred:

      • if there is exactly one root entity in the from clause, and it has no non-fetch joins, then that root entity is the only element of the select list, or
      • if there is an entity with the alias this, then that entity is the only element of the select list, or
      • otherwise, the query is considered ambiguous, and this method throws a SemanticException.

      The query must have an explicit from clause, which can never be inferred.

      Throws:
      IllegalSelectQueryException - if the given HQL query is an insert, update or delete statement

      • If the query has a single item in the select list, then the select item must be assignable to the given result type.
      • Otherwise, if there are multiple select items, then the select items will be packaged into an instance of the result type. The result type must have an appropriate constructor with parameter types matching the select items, or it must be one of the types Object[], List, Map, or Tuple.

      If a query has no explicit select list, the select list is inferred from the given query result type:

      • if the result type is an entity type, the query must have exactly one root entity in the from clause, it must be assignable to the result type, and the inferred select list will contain just that entity, or

      Passing Object.class as the query result type is not recommended. In this special case, this method has the same semantics as the overload createSelectionQuery(String).

      The returned Query may be executed by calling Query.getResultList() or Query.getSingleResult().

      Parameters:
      hqlString - The HQL select query as a string
