Folks,

I have a method to create a HQL based on the passed in paramters (e.g. field which is the dot notation representation of a particual field). My question is if I want to check if it is a valid dot notation representation, any easy way to do this? (other than looping through the field between dot using Configuration configuration.getClassMapping(DrivingVO.class).getProperty("first_part_of_field") and using isAssociationType() to check if it is association and checking the current field again with the associated class ...)

Thanks in advance!

Martin
