I have a problem with creating Criteria search result with Entity that has EmbeddedId. 
Let's say I have many-to-many relation with additional fields. My example is to connect Player with Season as many-to-many relationship (called Performance) with additional field : goals. Example here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/3f79euvlth9z1op/erd.png
So I have mapped Entities:
Code:
@Entity
@Table(name="performances")
@AssociationOverrides({
   @AssociationOverride(name="id.player", joinColumns=@JoinColumn(name="player_id")),
   @AssociationOverride(name="id.season", joinColumns=@JoinColumn(name="season_id"))
})
public class Performance implements Serializable {
   private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
   @EmbeddedId
   @Getter @Setter
   private PerformanceID id;
   @Getter @Setter
   private int goals;
   public Player getPlayer(){
      return id.getPlayer();
   }
   public Season getSeason(){
      return id.getSeason();
   }
   // equals, hashcode, tostring...
}
Code:
@Embeddable
public class PerformanceID implements Serializable {
   private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
   @ManyToOne(fetch=FetchType.LAZY, targetEntity=Player.class)
   @JoinColumn(name="player_id")
   @Getter @Setter
   private Player player;
   @ManyToOne(fetch=FetchType.LAZY, targetEntity=Season.class)
   @Getter @Setter
   private Season season;   
}
Now I want to search my objects: I want to search Performance that hawe Players with name "Claudio". In HQL ewerything works fine:
Code:
public List<Performance> customList() {
  Query query = sessionFactory.getCurrentSession().createQuery("from Performance where id.player.name = 'Claudio'");
  return query.list();
   }
It generates SQL like:
Quote:
select performanc0_.player_id as player2_1_, performanc0_.season_id as season3_1_, performanc0_.goals as goals1_ from performances performanc0_ cross join players player1_ where performanc0_.player_id=player1_.id and player1_.name='Claudio'
But i cannot generate it by create criteria. My try was:
Code:
public List<Performance> customList() {
      Criteria criteria = sessionFactory.getCurrentSession().createCriteria(Performance.class);
      criteria.createAlias("id.player", "player");
      criteria.add(Restrictions.ilike("player.name", "Claudio"));
      return criteria.list();
   }
and it has generated sql like:
Quote:
select this_.player_id as player2_1_0_, this_.season_id as season3_1_0_, this_.goals as goals1_0_ from performances this_ where player1_.name ilike ?
But it failed with SQLGrammarException (missing claule "FROM" for table "player1_"):
My stacktrace:
