Good evening lords and ladies.

I'm working with an SQLServer legacy database, it's fields are plenty of bad encoded characters and not so bad encoded characters.
Like this:
ZU#IGA
ZU¦'IGA
ZU¿IGA
ZU=IGA
ZU¥IGA
ZUÃ?IGA
ZUÂ¥IGA
ZUðIGA
ZUÑIGA

All surenames refer to Zuñiga surname, if I write a query changing the problematic characters by "_" underscore, the HQL query finds all possible fields related.

i.e.: Select surname from names where surname like 'Zu_niga%'

Question is: Exists an Hibernate mechanism to filter and replace the problematic charactes before a parameter substitution takes place or before query execution?

Thank you!
