my entity object contains a set. Normally if i want the number of elements i would call the size() function.

How do i impliment this with criteria? this will be used for ordering the results. I can cheat and create a counter, and do the order by that column name desc...
but i bet there is a "nicer" way of doing this.

Thanks

P.S. if the nicer way is creating an Example object, as long as it worked w/out modifying the entity i will be pleased :)

Thanks,

So i found on the net something along the lines of the following. Unfortunately this did not work.



Anyone have any ideas?

sorry double post
