Subqueries in Criteria-API use wrong table alias ------------------------------------------------ Key: HHH-3114 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-3114 Project: Hibernate3 Issue Type: Bug Components: query-criteria Affects Versions: 3.2.6 Reporter: Gerald Glocker Priority: Blocker Subqueries (exists, notExists, and probably others) are formulated using table alias "this_" but the outer query also uses the same table alias. This is a serious mistake for subqueries working on the same table or for subqueries on tables with the same column names. Example: DetachedCriteria c = DetachedCriteria.forClass(Person.class, "a"); c.add(Restrictions.eq("lastname", "Smith")); DetachedCriteria sub = DetachedCriteria.forClass(Person.class); sub.setProjection(Projections.property("id")); sub.add(Restrictions.eqProperty("lastname", "a.lastname")); sub.add(Restrictions.gtProperty("dob", "a.dob")); c.add(Subqueries.exists(sub)); List persons = ht.findByCriteria(c); Produces SQL: select this_.id as id4_0_, this_.firstname as firstname4_0_, this_.lastname as lastname4_0_, this_.dob as dob4_0_ from Person this_ where this_.lastname = ? and exists (select this_.id as y0_ from Person this_ where this_.lastname = this_.lastname and this_.dob > this_.dob) The error can cleary be seen on the where-condition "this_.dob > this_.dob". Please try to fix this problem soon.
