Gavin King ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?accountId=557058%... ) *updated* an issue Hibernate ORM ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH?atlOrigin=eyJpIjoiYTg3YjMwNzRk... ) / New Feature ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-16887?atlOrigin=eyJpIjoiYTg3Yj... ) HHH-16887 ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-16887?atlOrigin=eyJpIjoiYTg3Yj... ) full HQL type checking for queries in @HQL annotations ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-16887?atlOrigin=eyJpIjoiYTg3Yj... ) Change By: Gavin King ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?accountId=557058%... ) I have rewritten the core of the Query Validator to depend only on standard annotation processing APIs, and brought it into the Metamodel Generator. This means that queries specified using the {{@HQL}} annotation will be completely typechecked. *UPDATE* This work takes the HQL typechecking code from the {{query-validator}} project, recently rewritten to: * be based off H6, * support all recent JDKs, and * _not_ depend on internal compiler APIs, and integrates it into the Metamodel Generator. HQL queries are now completely typechecked when they occur: # in {{@HQL}}, or # in {{@NamedQuery}}, within the scope of a {{@CheckHQL}} annotation. With no {{@CheckHQL}} annotation, a named HQL query is only syntax-checked.
