I have a Hibernate entity that looks like this (accessors ommitted for brevity):
@Entity
@Table(name="FeatureList_Version")
@SecondaryTable(name="FeatureList",
pkJoinColumns=@PrimaryKeyJoinColumn(name="FeatureList_Key"))
public class FeatureList implements Serializable {
@Id
@Column(name="FeatureList_Version_Key")
private String key;
@Column(name="Name",table="FeatureList")
private String name;
@Column(name="VERSION")
private Integer version;
}
I want to craft an HQL query that retrieves the most up to date version of a FeatureList. The following query sort of works:
Select f.name, max(f.version) from FeatureList f group by f.name
The trouble is that won't populate the key field, which I need to contain the key of the record with the highest version number for the given FeatureList. If I add f.key in the select it won't work because it's not in the group by or an aggregate and if I put it in the group by the whole thing stops working and it just gives me every version as a separate entity.
So, can anybody help?
