Add method to Query for retrieving all records ignoring the maxResults ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-3179 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-3179 Project: Seam Issue Type: Feature Request Components: Framework Reporter: Alex Savitsky Sometimes, I find myself using the same query in two distinct use cases - with the maxResults limit, and without one. Say, if I have a list of entities that is used as a dropdown lookup in another entity, then I need all records (let's say there are about 200 of them) when I'm making a dropdown, yet I might need only a subset of records when I'm making a management screen and want the entites paginated. Or I need to paginate entities for the screen display, but retrieve them all in a report that uses the same query. Right now I ended up overriding framework.Query class, adding the following method to it: public List<E> getAllResults() { Integer currentMaxResults = maxResults; setMaxResults(null); List<E> result = getResultList(); setMaxResults(currentMaxResults); return result; } and using #{query.allResults} when I need them all. Maybe it makes sense to add it to this class on a permanent basis? It surely won't break anything, and might help covering an important usecase. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
