I am working with a bunch of named hql queries in Hibernate and it seems to me that no matter how I write the query the properties are still lazy loaded via my associations in the destinations files.
For example if I create a query, select cat from Cat cat left join fetch cat.kittens .... kittens will still be lazy loaded if I have my association between cat & kittens as lazy. The explicit fetch in the query is ignored. I would be interested to know if anyone else has come across this limitation? - Kevin
