This is slightly different from my previous question (for the same class) so I'll start a new topic. I have a class defined like this:
Code:
@Entity
@Table(name = "ncc_failure")
public class NccFailure
{
    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.SEQUENCE, generator = "SEQ_STORE")
    private long id;


    @CollectionOfElements( fetch = FetchType.EAGER)
    @JoinTable(
            name = "ncc_failure_subnet_link",
            joinColumns = @JoinColumn(name = "ncc_failure__id")
    )
    @Column( name="ip_subnet_id", nullable = false)
    private final Set<String> subnetIds = new HashSet<>();

    @AccessType("property")
    @Lob
    @Column(name = "summary")
    private String summary;


    @AccessType("property")
    @Lob
    @Column(name = "file_lines_data")
    private String  fileLinesData;
}


Now I have an existing framework that makes use of Criteria and Restrictions to specify conditions for SELECT (most it tries to convert English-language conditions into Criteria/Restrictions in order to fetch the right record). The question I have now is how to write Criteria/Restrictions against the subnetIds variable, because it's a collection.
For example I want to get all the NccFailure whose subnetIds may contain an ID "12345". I would like to write a condition as:

criteria.add(org.hibernate.criterion.Restrictions.contains("subnetIds", "12345"));

Unfortunately this doesn't work, because there's no "contains" factory method for Restrictions. Is there a way I can achieve what I need?

Similarly, what if I want to specify a Restrictions for a "any subnetId like '%abcd%'" condition?

Checkout this section in the Hibernate documentation:

Code:
List cats = session.createCriteria(NccFailure.class)
    .createCriteria("subnetIds")
        .add(Restrictions.eq("elements", "12345"))
    .list();


The same could be done for like:

Code:
List failures = session.createCriteria(NccFailure.class)
    .createCriteria("subnetIds")
        .add(Restrictions.eq("elements", "%abcd%"))
    .list();

I did like you said but got this exception:

org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.HibernateSystemException: collection was not an association: com.redsealsys.srm.common.ncc.NccFailureImpl.subnetIds; nested exception is org.hibernate.MappingException: collection was not an association: com.redsealsys.srm.common.ncc.NccFailureImpl.subnetIds

It looks like Hibernate is understanding the Criteria to an object association instead of collection of primitive types.

Does it have anything to do with Hibernate version? I notice the doc you were referring to is 4.3, while what we have is 3.3.1. Does it matter?

I cannot find an equivalent section or something similar to it (createCriteria for a collection of scalar/primitive values) in the 3.3 doc. So my assumption is this was only allowed starting in 4.3...

Nowadays, people use JPA Criteria API and so the legacy criteria queries are deprecated and now further development will be done.
Hibernate 3.5 supports JPA 2.0, so give it a try with JPA Criteria and see if it works better.

By the way the quality of that 4.3 doc is, how do I put it, rather unreliable. In section 18.1 it still lists this code as valid:
Code:
sess.createSQLQuery("SELECT * FROM CATS")
.addScalar("ID", Hibernate.LONG)
.addScalar("NAME", Hibernate.STRING)
.addScalar("BIRTHDATE", Hibernate.DATE)


Well the thing is Hibernate.STRING/LONG/DATE have all been removed, so that code will not be compilable in 4.3

The Hibernate 4.x documentation is out-dated, and the 4.x branch is not under development anymore.
As of writing, I'm working on a new User Guide for the 5.1 release which is mostly written from scratch.
