CreateCriteria with projections does not select all columns

Question

My Question is exactly like Grails Projections not returning all properties and not grouped

I have a following criteria

def sharedDocumentsInstance         


        

Answer 1

For the sake of those still having this issue; Remove the provided params object on the list method. So the criteria query above becomes:

def sharedDocumentsInstanceList = SharedDocuments.createCriteria().list {
    createAlias('receiver', 'r')
    createAlias('author', 'a')
    eq("r.id",session.uid)  
    projections {
        groupProperty("a.id")
        property("a.firstName","firstName")
        property("a.lastName","lastName")
        property("a.emailAddress","email")
    }
    maxResults(params.max)
    firstResult(params.offset)
    order(params.sort, params.order)
}

Answer 2

    projections{                
        author {
           groupProperty("id")
           property("firstName","firstName")
           property("lastName","lastName")
           property("emailAddress","email")
        }
    }

Would using the above approach yield different results? Just a thought...
