Hi All,

I am trying a simple left join between 2 tables using Hibernate Criteria API.

I do this by using criteria.createAlias(collectionName, aliasName);// Ignore the details
and then setting an Expression API on the alias.

However one of the issues I am facing is an exception which says : 'hibernate.MappingException:collection was not an association'

There is a link on the hibernate site which goes as below

http://www.hibernate.org/117.html#A2

Please visit this link and could any of you let me knw if Hibernate still doesnt support the Criteria API for joins since I assume many of you must have used it in your applications.

Kindly let me know if you need any inputs from my side.

Many Thanks.


Regards,
Rajesh
