Hibernate - HQL to fetch a collection from Unidirectional OneToMany relationship

Question

I have an Class with a unidirectional one to many relationship as follows:

public class Order {
    @OneToMany(cascade = CascadeType.ALL)
    @JoinTable(name=\"o         


        

Answer 1

select item from Order order
inner join order.items item
where order = :order
and ...

HQL queries use entities and their associations. The fact that the association uses a join table or not is not important for HQL: you navigate through associations and Hibernate does the appropriate translation to SQL.
