[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Resolved: (HHH-2779) Column value incorrectly enclosed in square brackets in SQL generated by Hibernate when using Restrictions.ne with ignoreCase()

Column value incorrectly enclosed in square brackets in SQL generated by Hibernate when using Restrictions.ne with ignoreCase() ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: HHH-2779 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-2779 Project: Hibernate3 Issue Type: Bug Components: query-criteria Affects Versions: 3.1.3 Environment: Both MySQL and Oracle, Java 5.0 Reporter: Vladimir Strugatsky Assignee: Diego Pires Plentz These are the generated FROM and WHERE clauses: from IMPACTS this_ left outer join IMPACT_DEGREE_TYPES alias_1x1_ on this_.ID_IMPACT_DEGREE_TYPES=alias_1x1_.ID_IMPACT_DEGREE_TYPES where lower(alias_1x1_.IMPACT_DEGREE_TYPE)<>? And here is the value of the IMPACT_DEGREE_TYPE as generated by Hibernate: [2007-08-13 19:13:31,039]: [DEBUG] org.hibernate.type.StringType - binding '[0 - no impact]' to parameter: 1 The value that we pass to Restrictions.ne() is '0 - No Impact' . Hibernate correctly converts the value to the lower case, because we use ignoreCase(). But it also encloses the value in square brackets, which, of course, breaks the query.
