[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HHH-3655) Select Query Using JPA and Static Inner Class

Select Query Using JPA and Static Inner Class --------------------------------------------- Key: HHH-3655 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-3655 Project: Hibernate ORM Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 3.3.1 Environment: Hibernate Version 3.3.1 GA, using JPA. MySQL DB. Reporter: Caine Lai Attachments: HibernateStaticInnerClassBug.zip I want to collect some statistics using JPA and return them all as a value object to my web tier. In my value object I have a static inner class I would like to use for the JPA query. My Class: public class GeneralVendorStatsVO { private List<StatusCounts> statusCounts = new ArrayList<StatusCounts>(); /** * Inner class for holding status counts for vendors. */ public static class StatusCounts { private UserStatus status; private Long count; public StatusCounts(UserStatus status, Long count) { this.status = status; this.count = count; } public UserStatus getStatus() { return status; } public void setStatus(UserStatus status) { this.status = status; } public Long getCount() { return count; } public void setCount(Long count) { this.count = count; } } // ********************** Accessor Methods ********************** // public List<StatusCounts> getStatusCounts() { return statusCounts; } public void setStatusCounts(List<StatusCounts> statusCounts) { this.statusCounts = statusCounts; } } And here is the method I am trying to execute: public GeneralVendorStatsVO getGeneralVendorStats() { GeneralVendorStatsVO vo = new GeneralVendorStatsVO(); // Get the status counts. String queryString = "SELECT new vo.stats.vendor.GeneralVendorStatsVO.StatusCounts(user.status, count(user)) FROM User user GROUP BY user.status"; Query query = this.em.createQuery(queryString); List<GeneralVendorStatsVO.StatusCounts> statusCounts = query.getResultList(); vo.setStatusCounts(statusCounts); for (GeneralVendorStatsVO.StatusCounts entry : statusCounts) { log.debug("Status: " + entry.getStatus()+ "Count: " + entry.getCount()); } return vo; } The error: org.hibernate.hql.ast.QuerySyntaxException: Unable to locate class [vo.stats.vendor.GeneralVendorStatsVO.StatusCounts] I don't know why this would not work, when I can do: new GeneralVendorStatsVO.StatusCounts(UserStatus.APPROVED, 200L) I was told I should open an issue because it seems like a bug.
