--------------------------------

Oleg,

Regarding your last comment, the issue HHH-879 is to "Enable joining the same association twice with Criteria".

> A way of specifying a join mode for Criteria queries would be great, such as in:

> I think this is important because is counterintuitive that order clauses add a filter to a Criteria. I know that by default a subCriteria will put an INNER_JOIN, but then again, if I have a QBE in a page with no filters, and click on a column to sort by that, I should get the same number of results as if I clicked another column, right? I would set a LEFT JOIN as default to avoid problems like that.
> Since that would break functionality, of course, then at least an overloaded version of createCriteria would be possible? Thanks.
