Package org.hibernate.query.restriction

Interface Path<X,U>

Type Parameters:

X - The root entity type

U - The leaf attribute type

@Incubating
public interface Path<X,U>

Allows construction of a Restriction on a compound path.

A compound path is a sequence of attribute references rooted at the root entity type of the query.

 SelectionSpecification.create(Book.class)
         .restrict(from(Book.class).to(Book_.publisher).to(Publisher_.name)
                         .equalTo("Manning"))
         .fetch(from(Book.class).to(Book_.publisher))
         .createQuery(session)
         .getResultList()
 

A compound path-based restriction has the same semantics as the equivalent implicit join in HQL.
