[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HHH-1237) Escaping : with :: in queries

Escaping : with :: in queries ----------------------------- Key: HHH-1237 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-1237 Project: Hibernate Core Issue Type: Patch Components: core Affects Versions: 3.1 rc3 Environment: Hibernate 3, Informix 9.4 Reporter: Steinar Dahl Priority: Minor Attachments: ParameterParser.java Original Estimate: 10m Remaining Estimate: 10m Since colons in queries in hibernate currenlty are non-escapable I created a patch (see http://forum.hibernate.org/viewtopic.php?p=2275131#2275131) to make it possible to escape the colon with itself. I needed to do this since I'm using Informix with native sql queries where I'm joining tables from two databases together. In informix you do this by specifiying <database-name>:<table-name> and that didn't work in hibernate since hibernate has reserved the colon for named parameters.
