[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HHH-465) order by nulls first / last

order by nulls first / last --------------------------- Key: HHH-465 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-465 Project: Hibernate3 Issue Type: Improvement Components: core Affects Versions: 3.0.3 Reporter: Anthony Patricio Priority: Minor support of nulls first / last in order clause "NULLS LAST" is part of the SQL 99 standard. The syntax is as follows: ORDER BY [COLUMN NAME] [ASC | DESC] [NULLS FIRST | NULLS LAST] In different DBs, the sorting of nulls relative to other values is handled differently. PostgreSQL - Nulls are considered HIGHER than non-nulls. DB2 - Higher MSSQL - Lower MySQL - Lower Oracle - Higher The following DBs have supported this functionality: DB2 V7 Oracle 9i PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLServer do not appear to support this from what I can gather. see http://forum.hibernate.org/viewtopic.php?t=942176&start=0&postday...
