<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:10px;; margin: 10px 0 0 0">Despite how crazy this idea sounds, there is an existing project that was the inspiration behind this: <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb397947.aspx" class="external-link" rel="nofollow" style="color: #3b73af; text-decoration: none">Linq Method Query Syntax</a></p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:10px;; margin: 10px 0 0 0">The idea would be simple on the API level, define the set of methods i.e.:</p>
<ul>
<li>
where
</li>
<li>
join
</li>
<li>
select
</li>
<li>
groupBy
</li>
<li>
orderBy
</li>
</ul>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:10px;; margin: 10px 0 0 0">That would take a Predicate as parameter (or other suitable functional interface) allowing to construct queries in a form:</p>
<div class="code panel" style="border-width: 1px;; border: 1px solid #ccc; background: #f5f5f5; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.333; font-family: monospace; border: 1px solid #ccc; -moz-border-radius: 3px 3px 3px 3px; border-radius: 3px 3px 3px 3px; margin: 9px 0">
<div class="codeContent panelContent" style="padding: 9px 12px">
<pre class="code-java" style="margin: 10px 0 0 0; max-height: 30em; overflow: auto; white-space: pre-wrap; word-wrap: normal">
session.createQuery(Event.class).where(e -> e.getType().equals(<span class="code-quote" style="color: #009100">"Java 8"</span>)).orderBy(e -> e.createDate())
</pre>
</div>
</div>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:10px;; margin: 10px 0 0 0">While this clearly introduces completly new syntax for creating queries next to existing HQL, criteria API and QBE it might be wort considering it.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:10px;; margin: 10px 0 0 0">The implementation definetly won't be trivial, but probably can be based on already widely used ASM that would have to be used to do the reverse enginering of the lambda statements.</p>
