Hello,

We are facing an issue regarding using indexing on a Hibernate query.
The version of the Hibernate is 4.1.9.Final and we connect with MySQL. The application is deployed on Apache Tomcat 7
We use the Criteria API in order to create the SELECT query on DB.

Our issue is that MySQL does not seem to use the index we have on one of our columns.
So, we would like to force the use of this index by adding on the created query something like:

FROM tableName this_ use index (columnName)


We would be grateful if you could suggest a way to overpass this issue.

Thank you
