Gavin King ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?accountId=557058%... ) *created* an issue Hibernate ORM ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH?atlOrigin=eyJpIjoiYzIyNjhhZGYy... ) / Bug ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-16843?atlOrigin=eyJpIjoiYzIyNj... ) HHH-16843 ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-16843?atlOrigin=eyJpIjoiYzIyNj... ) HQL 'value = null' ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HHH-16843?atlOrigin=eyJpIjoiYzIyNj... ) Issue Type: Bug Assignee: Unassigned Components: query-hql Created: 25/Jun/2023 09:26 AM Priority: Major Reporter: Gavin King ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?accountId=557058%... ) I discovered a totally ad-hoc special case hacked into SemanticQueryBuilder that reinterpreted value = null to mean value is null. This is completely contrary to nature, every dialect of SQL I’m familiar with, the JPA spec, and common sense. There was a comment justifying this on the basis that a couple of tests relied on it, but I looked at those tests and they were testing completely unrelated functionality. So this is a bug and should be fixed.
