Hi, When doing a full-text query which projects exactly one column, e.g. like so: List<?> list = fullTextSession.createFullTextQuery( query, MyEntity. class ) .setProjection( ProjectionConstants.ID ) .list(); Then each list element will be a single-column array, containing the projection result. I'd rather have expected the list to contain the single column values directly in this case. That's what HQL projection do and seems implied by the docs of list(). Is it done differently in HSEARCH on purpose or should it be considered a bug? Thx, --Gunnar
