[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Resolved: (HHH-5377) Criteria.createCriteria() doesn't "root" at last associated entity

Criteria.createCriteria() doesn't "root" at last associated entity ------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: HHH-5377 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-5377 Project: Hibernate Core Issue Type: Bug Components: query-criteria Affects Versions: 3.5.3 Environment: Windows XP, JDK 1.6.0_07, Hibernate 3.5.3, Oracle 10g Reporter: Will Sumekar Assignee: Gail Badner When you call createCriteria() and then createAlias() on separate lines it still refers to the first entity. q = session.createCriteria(Maps.class).createAlias("Wafers", "w"); q.createCriteria("Devices", "d"); q.createAlias("PrisProduct", "pp"); This doesn't work as hibernate thinks that parent of pp is Maps (first entity) while the parent of pp should be Devices. But if you do: q = session.createCriteria(Maps.class).createAlias("Wafers", "w"); q.createCriteria("Devices", "d").createAlias("PrisProduct", "pp"); This works.
