Hi, 
Suppose I have inheritance hierarchy SuperClass is Payment, Subclass is CreditPayment,CashPayment. 
And I query from hql "from Payment p". It will fetch the records from Payment, CreditPayment and CashPayment. But I want records from only Payments and not from it's subclasses. How to do that. I tried explicit polymorphism. But not working. 
Suppose Payment has 1 record, CreditPayment has 2 records and CashPayment has 3 records with following inheritance hierarchy.
If I select using HQL " from Payment P ", I will get 6 records. But I do not want hibernate to use implicit polymorphism, I want hibernate to select from only Payment and not from CashPayment and CreditPayment. How do I do it. I tried Poymorphism="explicit" But I still get 6 records.  Please help.
