Support pagination: total rows ignore limit ------------------------------------------- Key: HHH-4618 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-4618 Project: Hibernate Core Issue Type: New Feature Components: core Environment: JBoss 5.1.0GA Reporter: Dave Limit is used for pagination, but total number of rows must be known to calculate page count. Currently we have to use two queries: 1. select * from Student where age<30 limit 20; 2. select count(*) from Student where age<30; For complex query with joins/huge tables, it can be a performance issue. For Criteria API query with group by, there is no way to get row count, for example criteria.setProjection(Projection.projectionList().add(Projections.groupProperty("name")).add(Projections.sum(score))); Currently there is no way to get row count of this query using Criteria API. For MYSQL, SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS and FOUND_ROWS() are used to get row count ignoring limit. Pagination is used for all web application. Hibernate should support it in HQL and Criteria API. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/secure/Administrators.... - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
