is it possible to create a 'select in'-query with the hibernate critiria api ?
Example : I have two tables in a 1:n relation, company and department
select * from company c where c.id in (select company_id from department d
where d.departmentname = 'HR' and d.location = 'xyz')
You can use for this DetachedCriteria
DetachedCriteria subCriteria= DetachedCriteria.forClass(Departament.class);
subCriteria.add(Property.forName("departmentname ").eq("HR"));
subCriteria.add(Property.forName("location ").eq("xyz"));
subCriteria.setProjection(Projections.property("company_id "));
DetachedCriteria criteria = DetachedCriteria.forClass(Company.class);
criteria.add(Property.forName("id").in(subCriteria));
