I'm using Hibernate 4.1.10.Final.
I'm evaluating the javax.persistence.criteria.CriteriaQuery instead of old and deprecated org.hibernate.Criteria.

I've noticed a different behaviour of the two apis in relation to @ManyToOne association:

org.hibernate.Criteria are by default eager with JOIN fetch.
javax.persistence.criteria.CriteriaQuery are by default eager with SELECT fetch.

Is their default behavior different, or not?

I've tried to use the annotation @Fetch(FetchMode.JOIN) but hibernate still use the SELECT fetch.

Is there a way to change this CriteriaQuery behaviour?
I know that Fetch joins are specified by means of the fetch method like written in the JPA specification, but I would like the old default behaviour.

Thanks in advance.
