I have a Contact class with the following properties:

private long objectId;
private String firstname;
private String lastname;
private String middlename;
private String companyName;
private String title;
private String suffix;
private Date anniversary;
private Set<Group> groups;

I am trying to use Projections and just retrieve the firstname and groups using the following code


ProjectionList pList = Projections.projectionList();
pList.add(Projections.property("firstname"), "firstname");
pList.add(Projections.property("groups"),"groups");
criteria.setProjection(pList);
criteria.setResultTransformer(Transformers.aliasToBean(Contact.class));

But the resulting ContactRow object groups object is not populated and is coming as null.


Could anyone help on this.

You may clean the same question.
