Hi I was wondering is it possible to cast to a subclass in a criteria query like I have the following

class a extends t
class t
class d has a method get t

is it possible to do something like d.get("t").as("a").get("something in a");

I have tried
Join<d, t> join = distribution.join("t");
Path path = ((Path) join.as(a.class))
path.get("somthing in a");

however join.as returns a CastFunction so it gives me a cast class exception.

One more thing the inheritance type is joined don't know if that helps.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
