Re: [hibernate-dev] 6.0 - Session#createFilter

I think you are not understanding createFilter: http://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/orm/current/javadocs/org/hibernate/Sessio... Again, to call filter you'd have to have access to the Collection you want to filter.

Since Hibernate can access the field directly, this works, but with streams you'd need to expose the field via a getter so you can filter for it.
