Get record with max id, using Hibernate Criteria

Question

Using Hibernate\'s Criteria API, I want to select the record within a table with the maximum value for a given column.

I tried to use Projections, creating an alias

Answer 1

The cleaner solution would also be :

DetachedCriteria criteria = DetachedCriteria.forClass(Foo.class).setProjection(Projections.max("id"));
Foo fooObj =(Foo) criteria.getExecutableCriteria(getCurrentSession()).list().get(0);
