Answer 1

Old question, but the answer might be here:

simple solution is to use native SQL:

lst = sessionFactory.getCurrentSession().
createSQLQuery("select {entb.*}  from EntityB entb where  is_deleted=1")                            
       .addEntity("entb", EntityB.class)
       .list();

There is a dynamic version of the @Where setting, it is the @Filter. See:

• 19.1. Hibernate filters

Hibernate has the ability to pre-define filter criteria and attach those filters at both a class level and a collection level. A filter criteria allows you to define a restriction clause similar to the existing "where" attribute available on the class and various collection elements.

Management of @Filter is a bit more complex, in a nutshell:

• <filter-def> / @FilterDef is needed to define filter
• <filter> / @Filter must be assigned to class or a set
• filter must be enabled on a session level, e.g.: session.enableFilter("myFilter").setParameter("myFilterParam", "some-value");

So, this, while being a bit more complex, provides exactly what we need: dynamic @Where to be turned on/off in run-time
