How do I use a in clause 'in' a grails.gorm.DetachedCriteria?

Question

Is it possible to use an 'in' criteria in a Grails DetachedCriteria?

This is what I have,

def query = new DetachedCriteria(DomainObject)

// list is actually built up from another query, 
// but for this example I will use a predefined list
query.where { 'in' 'id', [4L, 5L, 9L] }

def count = query.count()

What I am seeing is that the count, which you would expect to be 3, is actually just the entire DomainObject table.

How do I get this query to work?

Answer 1

Try assigning the result of where to a query:

query = query.where { 'in' 'id', [4L, 5L, 9L] }
