Hi,

i got a mapping like:

So i am not using discriminator. Is there a way to query only object of
a specific type?

When i query for Car i get all Car and BetterCar objects. I think i could do sth like
...WHERE ID NOT IN (SELECT ID FROM Bettercar).. but is there a better way ?

Is there no build-in mechanism ?

Dear,

use Projection Property(pls refer hibernate Criteria API for details).
It helps to get only the required entity(table) values,
despite of getting all table fields.

It works like ,
select column0A, column0B from table01

despite of,
select * from table01
