Heres the basic setup:

(pseudocode)

<class Cat>

<set name="kittens" inverse="true" >
<one-to-many class="Kitten" />
</set>

Class Kitten has 2 relevant fields to this example- name and birthdate.

Now what I want to do, using criteria queries, is get a list of Cats, ordered by the name of the oldest kitten.

I have been googling for about 6 hours now, and I've read (but not fully grasped) the hibernate v3 docs, and I still don't even have a good place to start.

Can anyone help?

Thanks
