Hibernate version: 3.2.4 ga

Name and version of the database you are using: Oracle 9i

The generated SQL (show_sql=true):INFO [STDOUT] Hibernate: select abbreventityname0_.ENTITY_NAME_ID as ENT1_87_, abbreventityname0_.DESCR as DESCR87_, abbreventityname0_.IS_FIX_FLG as IS3_87_ from SCHEMA_NAME
.TABLE_NAME abbreventityname0_ order by abbreventityname0_.ENTITY_NAME_ID

Is there a way to explicitly name the alias you want Hibernate to use in the mapping file or is there a property to set that will allow us to override the default aliasing behavior.

There are places where we make use of Criteria queries, in which case we can name the alias to be used in the query. Is there a way to make use of this same type of behaviour without having to transition all of our hql to Criteria queries?

Thank you!
