HQL and checking if object is null or object field have specific value

Question

I have problem with executing following query:

from Customer c where c.connectedUserID = 1 and (c.connectedFinancialAnalyst is null or c.connectedFinancialAnalyst.completed = false)

object c.connectedFinancialAnalyst can be null. What I need is to find Customers that dont have financial analyst or property in financial analyst has specific value.

Edit: completed property is boolean in postgres and in java

Answer 1

You need to be explicit that you want to do a left join

from Customer c 
left join c.connectedFinancialAnalyst as analyst
where c.connectedUserID = 1 and (analyst.completed is null or analyst.completed = false)

Answer 2

I rewritten my code to Criteria and evrything works great. I suppose tkat the problem was with left join. When I used criteria i had to append Left Outter join like:

Criteria c = session.createCriteria(Customer.class, "c").createAlias("c.connectedFinancialAnalyst", "analyst", JoinType.LEFT_OUTER_JOIN);

Maybe when i would change left join at query to left outter join everything might work great ^^. But now my code seems to be a little bit more user friendly ^^
