Is UNION supported in a subquery? [message #1053519] Mon, 06 May 2013 11:12 Go to next message

I've been trying to run the following JPQL query without success:
select rr from SomeTable rr where rr.id in ( 
    select t1.id from SomeTable t1 where t1.neighboringTable IS NULL 
    union 
    select t2.id from SomeTable t2 where t2.neighboringTable.id = :param
) order by rr.name asc


I've tried several ways to get the same results, like putting the subquery in the FROM clause, always with the same "results":
[137, 137] The right parenthesis is missing from the IN expression.
[221, 223] The query contains a malformed ending.


As soon as I remove the UNION, everything works fine, so I am starting to wonder whether UNION is supported by Eclipselink 2.4.1 as part of a subquery. And if it is not, how could I get the same results by other means?

Looks like it is not supported. You can log a bug to have the support added.

You could change your query to use two INs, two subqueries and OR them.
