Hi Timo,
Hmm, the reference explains how to query/filter the contents of an association, so the second level, after loading the
parent/first level.
So you can create a query to read the first 10 patients sorted by last name and then for each patient load the
measurements through a collection filtered call (see the doc link of the previous post)
For the query you describe below, you can also use HQL to load this data, so you don't need to first load the patients,
you can create a query (hql) which returns tuples of patients - measurements and then sort by lastname, id. HQL has many
nice collection functions.

Hi Timo,
Doing patient.getMeasurements() does not load the collection yet, only if you call a method on the collection it starts
loading (if needed to do the call), for example, this loads the collection: patient.getMeasurements().get(0)
The removeAll and addAll on patient.getMeasurements will remove/add these objects in the database. So not sure if you
want to do tis.
For the hql to load the measurements, it is something like this:
select p, m from Patient p, Measurement m where m in p.measurements order by p.lastName, p.id, p.date
then within the where clause you can filter on other measurements properties. The result set of the query will be a list
of arrays where each array has 2 entries: a patient and a measurement entity. One patient can occur multiple times if a
patient as multiple measurements.
It is probably difficult to limit the query to the latest 10 measurements though. But you can do inner selects and other
complexer stuff.
My impression looking at your pseudo code is that you want to create have Patient objects which have a measurements
collections which is filtered/sorted. This is however not possible, the measurements collection in the Patient will
always be the complete list of measurements, you can create a filtered separate collection instance but this is a
separate instance from the collection in Patient.
Not sure if I explain it well enough :-)
