better error message for illegal 'collection dereference' in HQL query ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: HHH-2534 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-2534 Project: Hibernate3 Issue Type: Improvement Components: query-hql Reporter: Steve Ebersole Assignee: Steve Ebersole Priority: Minor Fix For: 3.2.3 Currently, when a user dereferences a collection improperly in an HQL query, a sorta cryptic error message is given which is a hold-over from the classic parser days (kept for regression testing in HQLTest). The error just says "illegal syntax near collection: ${propertyName}". Use a delegate in DotNode to allow a better error message by default, but for HQLTest to plugin a "classic" style error message generator. -- 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
