Make it configurable to Throw Exception when resultset for query > max result ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: HHH-917 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-917 Project: Hibernate Core Issue Type: New Feature Reporter: Nico De Groote It would be nice to configure in hibernate to throw an exception whenever the nr of records returned > max results instead of just returning the max result number of records. By default do not throw an exception. This implies to first perform a select count(*) query before proceeding to perform the actual query.
