AW: [eclipselink-users] questiona about JPQL and Collections

Hi Tom,

thanks for your help, in general it works as described by you.

However, I forgot to include the following member of RecordDao in the sample code:
  @Column(name = "RECORD")
  private byte[] _serializedRecord;

The generated SQL query contains DISTINCT, which is not usable with queries containing BLOBs.
Any suggestions how to handle this ?


Bye,
Daniel
