Greetings!

I am desiring to write a tool (Xdoclet extension) for a current project which, based upon an arbitrary named HQL query in the hbm file, will generate a POJO representing one row of the result of the query.

Query will return the types, but I am wondering if there is some way to use NamedSQLQuery which has the names of the returned aliases (which I would use to generate the bean).

I'm sorry to ask, I spent a couple of hours pouring through google and the api, and haven't found anything. I'm hoping that someone here might be able to help.

Thanks in advance,
matt

That as soon as I post a query, the lightbulb goes off and I figure it out.

I'll create a class (because it's easier to add it for the customer than to maintain a patched version of hibernate) which is in package net.sf.hibernate.impl which will expose methods of InternalNamedSQLQuery. This, then, I'll use to obtain my return alias names and types, then I can build the return POJO.
